What Causes Severe Knee Pain Postpartum?
Question: My wife aged 28, delivered a baby 4 months ago. Delivery was normal. However, She is having severe knee pain since last month all the time. How it can be cured?
Brief Answer:
Unrelated to delivery
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand the concerns.
Knee pain is unrelated to pregnancy and delivery.
It can be due to osteoarthritis, infection, stretching of ligaments or autoimmune diseases.
I will suggest her to consult an orthopedic surgeon for proper examination and treatment accordingly.
