        Hi, I was in a similar situation when I was diagnosed with Osteoarthritis a few years ago. My knees and joints hurt a lot. So I went to the NHS and the doctor recommended that I begin physiotherapy, which I did. The physiotherapist worked on the muscles, tendons, and tissues while the muscles loosened and relaxed, alleviating strain on the knee. Straight leg raises, Bridges, Wall Squats, and Lateral Walks were among the exercises recommended to me, and they all helped me rehabilitate my knee and joint pain and gain flexibility, and I am now fully healed. I hope this is helpful to melanoma patients to find comfort too.

          Hi, I too found a mole on my scalp, was a little worried. Later my doctor assured me that it is harmless.
