Suggest Treatment For Stiffness And Pain In Entire Leg After Knee Surgery

Your pain will improve with time
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have studied your case. I think that pain in knee can be due to following causes.
1.Muscle weakness
2.Post surgery inflammation or infection
3.Cartilage damage
As you have mentioned that this pain and stiffness in more of like tiredness so I believe that it is due to weak muscles. It is always good if you do exercises under supervision of a physio, but as you are doing it your self there is no harm. Your muscle strength will improve in a month.
I would recommend you following.
1.Avoid squatting and sitting cross leg.
2.Hot water fomentation.
3. Vlitran ointment
4. Tablet calcium and vitamin D 3 to improve bone quality.
I hope these steps will help in improving your pain. Let me know if there is any other followup questions.
thanks


This pain will go in next one month
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Arthroscopy surgery is not very traumatic but can cause pain for some time. Physiotherapy is for improving muscle strength and improvement of fatigue pain. I do not think that this pain will persist beyond 2 months.
You should do hot water fomentation and exercises. Volitran ointment application can be done, If there is severe pain than you can take Tablet Brufen but i would not suggest you to take pain killer regularly.
Thanks


Bright red blood can come through Infection in gut
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have studied your case. I do not think that Mortin is right choice for Diarrhoea as it is just a pain killer. I would recommend you to follow these steps.
1.Stool examination
2.If there is bacteria or parasite in stool Ciprofloxacin -Tinidazole combination tablet twice daily.
3.B complex daily.
4.Plenty of fruit juice and water.
I hope this treatment will help you. Diarrhoea medication is not good if there is infection. Electrolytes are good.
Thanks
