torn miniscus post othroscopic surgery
(2 discussions)
What are a few simple physical therapy exercises I can do at home to accelerate healing after surgery on right knee – othroscopic surgery?

I just had surgery 6 days ago, my kneecap is red, hot, somewhat swollen. My Dr. said is probably inflamed bursa, I had IV antibiotics at ER 2 days ago and am on 500mg Keflex 4Xs a day. The Dr. admitted today he had never seen my problem. The area is somewhat numb feeling in the red area only the normal area is fine. Is this a common occurrence with the Bursa? My knee is still really swollen but the pain I am having is only when I get up, and the red area seems to get hotter.
