First you need to be clinically evaluated for your symptoms and signs. And then a standing knee X-ray to evalute the grade of Osteoarthritis. 

Grade 1,2 and upto 3 - stem Cell therapies like PRP, ACS ADMSCs can be tried. But there is no guarntee

Grade 4 Osteoarthritis will require Total Knee Replacement 

Other things to be noted - You might be having Meniscus root tear or other pathologies which might need MRI for evaluation and treatment

my brother is 28 years old, and he just had ACL surgery a month ago. I'm curious about what activities he can safely resume at this point. Can you provide some guidance on what's generally acceptable 1 month post ACL surgery for someone his age?

Male | 28

Now, your brother can begin with light exercises such as walking and stationary cycling. He should refrain from high-impact activities such as running, jumping or twisting until he finishes his rehabilitation program. It would be wise to ask his orthopedic surgeon or a physical therapist for more information on the recovery process and advice about activities that he can engage in without risk.

Based on the pelvis hip AP X-ray, it shows that you mayhave reduced joint space and sclerotic changes in the femoral head. Follow up with your orthopedic doctor for further treatment. They may recommend additional MRI test, to get a more detailed look at the problem area.

Sir my right hand shoulder is paining since from 3 years and it pains very harder and also get swallowed

Female | 18

 The symptoms you are experiencing could be a sign of a Frozen Shoulder which is when the tissue in your shoulder becomes thicker and tighter than normal. A physical therapist can suggest some exercises that will help improve your range of motion while reducing discomfort.

I have a wound on my knee. Two days ago i fall in the road

Female | 22

I think you got a scratch on your knee when you fell. It's okay to have pain, redness, and swelling around your wound. This is because the fall has injured your skin. The solution is to gently clean the wound using soap and water, apply an antibiotic ointment, and cover it with an adhesive bandage. Always change the dressing daily until it heals. Opening up is necessary if the pain worsens or you notice any infections with symptoms like pus, light redness, or warmth.
