I was hoping someone may be able to offer some advice please.?
This year, 2014 I've had two arthroscopy on the same knee. One in February and the second in October. The problem was in the inside of my knee, pain from sitting to standing, full leg extension. Cartlidge tears, wear and tear. The surgeon called it bad luck. Is it common to have two in one year?
My second recovery was going well until the other week, when the pain was coming back. It hurts if I sit down for a long period, and still making clicking noises. Not sure just to leave it and put up with it, do some home exercises, and rest for a few months.
i was previously doing some exercise, aqua fit, walking, very very low impact, but since the second surgery I've now cancelled my gym membership.
Thank you
I would get back to the ortho that did the work an see if he could get you some therapy.BTW where are you located? Ice, elevation and rest until you see him would be the conservative approach. Better to err on the side of caution. I suspect that popping and grinding is just some of the tissue aligning itself and starting to heal.
I am near the end of the physio therapy, with home care. It was going so well, until I walked 5k with rest breaks, and it's been bad since, even climbing stairs. Probably being cautious at the moment, the thought of a third op scares me. We put our knees through so much.
Thank you for your feedback.
I had a scope jan of last year and then one in March. He finally said your knee keep reading lets do replacement this way it relieve pain. Sessions of pt made me cry. And knees swelled. I shread ans j am 11 days post opp he said he want to make me fill better. Long road to recovery.
Best luck. ❤️
