Suggest Treatment For Blood In Knee Cap Due To Injury After Knee Replacement
I had a complete knee replacement. About six weks ago. I hade one fall since then. My knee keeps filling up with blood. Ive had the blood drawn two times. and sent off. It came bace with no curlters. but my syrgon. prescbed . me oxzcodone 30 mg. Well I looked it uo on the PILL I D. ON one side it has a M incased with a box. The other side Just has a30 on it. and it is White And Round. The only thing I can find says. it should be blue. This is though though the V.A System. It does not seem to be helping when, mt knee sweels with blood. Can you give me any idea were this blood may be coming from. And Is med. is correct. This would not be the first time I have gotten the wrong meds, from the V.A.
In my opinion, you are having some injury to your tissue / small blood vessels of knee joint. You should be on some hemostatic drug (To stop internal bleeding) for some time. If you are on some blood thinner, that may be stopped under guidance of your doctor for 3-5 days.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
