What Is The Remedy For Recovering Arthroscopic Keyhole Surgery?
HELLO. I HAVE RECENTLY BEEN DIAGNOSED HAVING HIGH CHOLESTEROL 7.8. AND HAVE SEVERE PAINS IN MY ANKLES AND FEET. I DO A TEN HOUR WORK SHIFT STANDING ALL NIGHT., I HAVE ALSO HAD A SCAN ON MY RIGHT ELBOW AND HAVE BEEN TOLD I HAVE OSTEOARTHRITIC CONDITIONS INCLUDING OSTEOPHYTES. I AM IN QUITE A LOT OF PAIN. IN SEPTEMBER OF LAST YEAR I HAD AN ARTHROSCOPIC KEY HOLE SURGERY IN MY RIGHT SHOULDER AND I AM STILL RECOVERING. MY WORKS AND MY GP TELL ME THAT I SHOULD BE WORKING. I HAVE HAD TWO WEEKS OFF SICK AND DONT FEEL THAT I AM CAPABLE OF WORKING.

Hi
There's a need to consult orthopedics surgeon again for you elbow and ankle pains...if arthroscopic findings suggest osteophytes, then clinical evaluation required whether surgical intervention too needed or not.z ,Pain and anti inflammatory medicines, hot fomentation, physical therapy may offer relief..if not, then do see the orthopedician
Best wishes
