Question 2

I'm a 41-year-old woman with obesity and just had a complete ACL tear. It's been two weeks and my ortho said surgery isn't urgent could even wait a year. How long until I can walk normally again? I'm not super active but love swimming, walking, and dancing will I still be able to do those without surgery?

Accepted Answer

First of all, acl ligament tear will not heal by its own ..ligament recreconstruction is the only solution in your case and also then only u can carry out your sports type activities. Second thing waiting for such a long time is not advisable as internal derangement may lead to medial meniscus tear and early arthritis changes due to cartilage erosion..so better to go for arthroscopic acl reconstruction as soon as possible till that time keep doing quadriceps strengthening excersises andROM excersises that will help you in post operative rehabilitation.

Question 3

I've been feeling some pain where I got my injection, it's in my left hip area. Can you help me understand why this is happening and what I should do about it?

Accepted Answer

The pain in your left hip area, where you received an injection, could be due to inflammation, infection, or muscle soreness; apply ice packs to reduce swelling

I had a revision knee replacement back in 2009 but now I'm dealing with stiffness in my knee and really bad pain there plus some pain around my waist line too any idea what could be causing this or what I should do about it

we can then consider surgical options.
