Delayed union tibial shaft fracture

22months back my tibial bone communicated open type fracture, with muscle loss. Immediately docters done muscle flap and Antibiotic bone cement placed in and around the fracture fragment's. After 3months they planed ilizaro fixation and bone graft, but they can't completely removed previously placed antibiotic bone cement. Now bone cement is present in the bone marrow space of the distal fracture fragment of tibia. Now can I walk with out support also. But bone takes time for growth hard calus.

Low Bone Mass? Osteoporosis? Or cancer

I am asking on behalf of a friend who refuses to see a doctor. Some of the details of the subject: - in her early 30s. Height: 155-160cm. Weight:53-60KG - has celiac diseases & Polycystic Ovary Syndrome - takes a lot of pain killers during migraine & menstrual times - last blood test shows a high amount of hormone level (i forgot if it's estrogen or progesterone) - doesn't really take proper meals and take gluten stuffs a lot even with celiac diseases Anyways, the story is she has been having pain in the bones (starting from the legs) for about 6 months now. And then it starts going to the ribs and sometimes she said she feels in the whole body. It happens randomly. While I believe that it could be due to her hormone imbalance and insufficient nutrients that speeds up osteoporosis or low bone density, she believes that it's bone cancer and refuses to consult professionals. So my question is what is the situation? What are the possibilities?

Constant right elbow cracking

My right elbow keeps cracking quite often. I don't feel any pain and I am able to execute any exercise without any discomfort. Also right is my dominant hand and there is no such problem with the left elbow. The cracking occurs mostly while stretching the elbow but it happens quite often. I had tennis elbow in the right hand about 8 months back from which I fully rehabilitated and there is no issue with tendon now. Kindly help.
