Re: What can stop THIS kind of pain?

[Guest guest]

if you are at the point of bone on bone , the only thing that is going to help

you is a partial or total knee replacement . it is the bones rubbing together

that is causing your pain , have the knee surgery if your ortho recommends it

you will be glad you did. i know i am . in fact i probably waited too long and

got ligament damage they couldnt repair

left knee joint. Feels like a needle is stuck in the middle of it all. On top of

being noisy, it just hurts like hell. The joint is bone on bone.

I guess I have to call the RD tomorrow when I get done school, but what can he

really do? Upping the pred. did not help and I cannot take more Lodine.

If you don't mind me asking...

What type of ligament damage did you suffer? Currently, my ligaments are in

dire need of stretching. So it looks like my knees are bent all the time. I am

keeping them stretched so I have less surgical complications once I do get a

replacement.

Surgery may happen next spring as I have the possibility of a free semester

off. I also looked at my knees last night after posting and they are quite

swollen, which may be the culprit...THIS TIME.
