Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Severe Pain In Knees Post Injecting Knee Gel?
I had left knee surgery last August. My right knee was always good to strong. Approximately 2-3 months ago my doctor suggested knee gel injections as I still had discomfort in my left knee. He also suggested that I get gel injection in right knee for extra insurance and support of that knee. Since the injection I have had tremendous pain in both knees (also on back of knee- particularly the right one). On a scale of 1-10 I would say it has been as bad as 8. I am now trying supplements and bengay as well as bandages. I was going to YOGA but had to miss this week because pain is so bad. Any suggestions (replacement out of question).
you can consult the treating surgeon. it can be problem of injection or infection during and after injection. idonot agree with the procedure. it can be discussed with orthopedics for total management.
