Bone & Muscle problems
Fracture care
I recently suffered a non displaced fracture near my left ankle. I have no idea how to take care of the cast while walking or using washroom. I am just trying my best to cover it with plastic covers while I use washroom and making sure I put no pressure on my left leg. I need some pointers as to what I can use to make this any easier. I want to know what kind of crutches can be used, what can I use to sit on an Indian toilet, is it okay to cover my cast with saran wrap 24/7 to keep it clean & dry, should I go to the hospital if my cast gets even a little eroded or wet. Any advice will be appreciated. Thank you.

Neck pain and dizziness
So I get these dizziness episodes some time. While these episodes I feel a slight pressure or tightness at left side of occipital area or maybe at the back of the skull. And I have discomfort at that part where there is tightness. I have neck pain too around left side around suboccipital. So, are these muscle spasms or tension which are causing dizziness? Or is there anything else ?

Mild pain after sitting cross legged
Hi!
I have been working from home for sometime. I prefer to sit cross legged on bed while operating the laptop from a laptop table.
Recently however I have been facing mild pain in right knee joint when I get up to walk. The pain and stiffness goes away after stretching for a few minutes though and then I am able to walk properly.
Should I consult a doctor or is it just posture issue that needs posture correction?
Please advise.
Thanks!

Lower back pain
Hello sir / ma'am,
Myself 32yrs /M, from past one month i was involved in a physically exhausting hectic schedule due to my house rennovation.
