Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was given flexilor P8 and altraday for ligament tears around my left knee due to a fall.after using it foe couple of days i started getting swelling below my knee n in no time i had swelling all over including my face. I m not allowed to take any NSAIDs. I just take Lenol ER if i need to, i never got such side effect before, which of the 2 must have triggered my prob?
Hello I have studied your case. This can be due to flexilor p . I WILL advise you to hold both medicine and see for relief . then you can start with altraday. Physiotherapy like ultrasound and Tens may give you a great relief. use hinged knee brace. If required you may need MRI again. I hope I have answered your questions. If you have further questions please feel free to contact us. I will be happy to answer. Take care.
