Suggest Remedy For Pain After Torn Meniscus
I had an arthroscopic procedure 7 weeks ago for a torn meniscus. I am still having a lot of pain. My range of motion is good however. But I m presently taking tramadol, 800mg of ibuprofen three times a day and tylenol 4 times a day. The pain is relentless. What could be wrong and what should I do?

Free exercises (i.e. leg hanging) should be completely restricted. Physiotherapy (Ultrasound, ICE application & TENS) will help to reduce pain. If any implant, TENS is contraindicated. Physical examination is required to assess the real condition of knee.
