Is There Any Injection Given During Knee Surgery Speeding Up Recovery?

hopefully yes.......I heard that there was an injection used at the point of knee surgery called Esperal....Hope it is spelled correctly. This injection allows a patient to get up the next day and very short days for rehab preventing a stay in a rehabilitation ctr. Am seeking a Dr that does this

Esperal is not a drug to be used in knee. It is used to prevent alcohol abuse. There is no such medications I know which can cause such speedy recovery. Give your body time to recover. You can take analgesic for pain relief.
