Guest guest Posted July 18, 2004 Report Share Posted July 18, 2004 unfortanatly i just had arthroscopy again two months ago and with my first one being two years ago. I still have not fully recovered from the surgery from two months ago. I do not feel that this surgery has helped either time and i am researching other treatment methods. I was diagnosed with chondromalacia and i had a cartlidge tear under my knee cap. how old are you? I am only 26, wish i had better news for you, but i have more symptoms since surgery then i did before. I am trying to find somewhere that studies just knees or some type of knee clinic... if u have heard of any, let me know --bouya2u@... > > > __________________________________________________ > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2004 Report Share Posted July 18, 2004 I just had surgery on my knee July 7th. I had the underside of the knee cap shaved and cleaned out. My knee is still swollen and bruised. So far I can only put half pressure on it. It took me almost a week to be able to lift my leg. Don't worry, you're not alone.

I still feel banged and bruised. Please let me know how you guys recovered...how long etc... ps: i want to hear positive things please ! --farah ===== __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
