I have been diagnosed with osteoporosis and have a T12 compression fracture with 40% height loss centrally and 4mm retropulsion of fragments of the superior endplate. I am experiencing back pain and discomfort in my legs, but I am not considering surgery. What type of diet should I follow, and what physical therapy should I undergo? Additionally, should I see an endocrinologist, and what would they do?

Is 1mg Xanax taken for sleep over about 2 years enough to cause major withdrawal symptoms upon cessation? I've noticed I can't find my words sometimes and want to stop taking it. Do I need to taper off of 1mg or can I just quit?

After undergoing surgery, I experienced visions and talking to myself that night. I took hydrocodone and tizanidine on the way home, which seemed to worsen the symptoms until midnight. I woke up fine the next morning. What could have caused these symptoms, and should I inform the anesthesiologists before future surgeries?

I have a large indent near my anus that I would like to have filled. I have not used any medications for this, and while I have seen a doctor, I'm not sure they understood the issue. I am a 20-year-old male, and I do not know how the indent was formed. What is the indent, and what options do I have for treatment?
