Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am recovering from a knee replacement surgery done April 2017. I have had considerable pain with it; been through PT, also have done sciatica exercises since I have had that previously and some of my recent pain was similar to that. I am on a probiotic and various supplements for my calcium deficiency, etc. I am getting impatient with recovery.
You can consider analgesics like tramadol or hydrocodone for pain relief. If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopaedic and plan for an MRI scan.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
