What Causes Stiffness And Pressure In The Right Knee After An Injury?

I had meniscus surgery in June where some was removed in my right knee due to a tear. After 8 months of PT and exercise I still feel downward pressure on the knee when standing for 30-40 minutes. Orthopedic surgeon is recommending viscous supplement but not sure if it will help. There is stiffness when walking but no pain.

Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi,

It seems that meniscus was not completely treated at that time.

Get fresh MRI scan of knee done and send me the report.

Keep on doing physiotherapy.

Avoid squatting and prolong standing.

Havectab.aceclofenac100mg +serratiopeptidase15mg when pain occurs but by prescription of family doctor.

Thanks.
