My grandfather fell from the roof. His spine is fractured, and both his arm and leg are also broken. He has stitches near his eye. One of his kidneys has been completely damaged. The doctors said that surgery would be extremely risky because, given his age of 85 years, he might not survive the operation. A doctor in Muzaffarpur has referred him to a hospital in Patna. Do you think he will survive
My mother's MRI (Feb) shows: Mild L5–S1 retrolisthesis, Modic changes, L3–4 left foraminal disc protrusion, and L4–5/L5–S1 disc prolapse with caudal migration causing severe foraminal stenosis. She has pain mainly in the buttock radiating to the leg. She is currently taking Nervite Plus, Gabapin-NT, and Vitamin D3 60,000 IU. The pain has reduced slightly but is still persistent. Would you recommend any change in medications (add, reduce, or switch), or any specific physiotherapy/exercises that are safe and effective? Any lab tests to do for check-up the parameters???Please tell me best possible way...

28-year-old male with right shoulder pain after a forceful volleyball serve 1.5 months ago. Symptoms initially improved after I stopped playing sports but flared up again 7–8 days ago. Orthopedic examination diagnosed rotator cuff strain with a positive impingement test. Current symptoms include burning/crawling sensation around the right shoulder blade, occasional tingling, and stiffness around the right shoulder and upper trapezius region. A neurologist documented a right shoulder injury and referred me back to orthopedics. I have not had an MRI or started physiotherapy yet. Given the burning/tingling symptoms, I'm unsure whether I should continue orthopedic treatment or whether this could be a neurological issue.
