Bone & Muscle problems

My friend's index finger bone got a hairline fracture. The fracture is at the tip of the bone from where the finger starts. Is plaster necessary for these types of fractures or it can be healed automatically without plastering? (only by taking medicines for pain and swelling) Please let me know if any other information needed.

Hi Doctor, I've been facing this issue for more than a couple of years. It doesn't happen always. But whenever I play, I get this problem of severe pain in Back foot. This is not the toe area but back side of ankle. The right foot pains a a lot when I try to put my weight as I walk. I am unable to walk properly due to this. I don't see any swellings. Looks normal visually. But as I stretch my foot or As I put my weight on backfoot while walking it causes severe pain. At times, even when am not playing, the issue occurs when I wake up in d morning. It goes for another week the same way. Please help me on what should I look into to get this sorted? I m feeling d pain now and I ve attached the photo as well.

Hello Dr(s), My wife has higher ESR rate and we consulted a doctor and he advised to take Steroids which she is taking since one week. For the last two days she has some swelling on her leg on the knee. Is there any side effect because of steroids? Appreciate your advice. Thank you.

Took a steroid injection for my trigger finger. Today is the 4th day, no improvement noticed. How long it takes to show improvement ? Please advice what to do next. Thank you.
