Nausea, Leg Pain, Lower Back And Hip Pain, Swelling. Had Bilateral Knee Replacements. What Went Wrong?
Hi after having had bilateral knee replacements, I have constant pain in my legs so bad that I feel nausea and am unable to walk more than a few steps before the pain becomes so much I am all most sick, this is also affecting my lower back and hips. the pain is around the knee which is swollen and is worse than before the operation, I cannot lie down because the pain in the back and legs keep me up all night. The left side feels as if the pain is inside the bone
Hi, the pain depends upon the period you had surgeries, if it is recent, you need some more time for accomodation, and needs physiotherapy. If it is long time back, there is some thing wrong about the surgery. I to my patient with such symptoms prescribe injection of vitamin B1, 6, and 12, for 10 consecutive days, and one injection every week, and centrally acting analgesics in the night , and NSAID,in the morning. Avoid taking potato, other tubers, egg, chicken, and sea foods, till you are comfertable. Thank you.
