What should I do if my wound is swollen and painful after meniscus surgery?

If you're trying to be sure, then go for an MRI and see if the leg is disc-shaped. I had surgery on the meniscus in my right knee and I also injured my left knee a few years later, and I found out that it was also a discoid meniscus. The discoid meniscus is easy to tear, and for people with total exercise, the chance of tearing is greater.

First of all, your injured leg can be pasted with Qi Zheng swelling and pain relief plaster, which is a Tibetan medicine, quite effective, and you should take several injections of sodium hyaluronate every year to lubricate, nutrition and anti-inflammatory effects on the joint meniscus. For the leg that is not injured, it is better not to have surgery first, after all, it is a good leg. If it's an athlete, then do it; If not, then pay more attention and wear knee pads when you usually move to protect yourself.

There is also the need to exercise the quadriceps muscles of the thighs, which can reduce the pressure on the meniscus.

Recommendations: rest;

Do not walk long distances and stand for long periods of time;

Resting at night can elevate the affected limb (promote blood return and reduce swelling);

Take some anti-inflammatory medications (knee swelling is inflammation of the synovial membrane of the knee that produces a lot of fluid).

If the effect of taking medicine is not good, it is recommended to go to the surgical hospital for a follow-up.

Congenital discoid meniscus is not necessarily symmetrical, you should rest more in your case, and ice your knee joint every time you have a lot of activity, which can effectively reduce your symptoms.

Because there is still inflammation, so red and swollen, hurry up to see a doctor, prescribe some medicine, be sure to listen to the doctor's precautions, don't be in a hurry to move, otherwise it will be unfavorable to the body, and it will also affect study and work.

It is possible that Hui Qin is infected with a foreign body deep at the incision, for example, some people will reject the sutures until a long time after the surgery is rejected. It is recommended to find an experienced general surgeon to help take a look, and those who often perform operations in city and county-level central hospitals can pretend to be clear.

Generally, knee injuries are very susceptible there. Check it yourself, put your hands on your knees, see if you have a click on the joint during the sitting extension, and if so, you should pay attention to the pull! And when you go up and down the stairs, do you suddenly seem to be unable to move your joints, as if you are stuck?

In this case, you have to check the pull. It must be **, it doesn't seem to be anything when it doesn't hurt, but it will always be**. Generally, if it is not serious, it can be cured by resting, and if the meniscus is broken, surgery will be required**.

There are several types of surgery, such as excision and suture, and the surgery is done under arthroscopy, and the wound is small and the bleeding is very small, and it is generally only available in a larger hospital. After surgery, you can usually return to the same situation as before the surgery in 3 months! Just exercise more after surgery!

Hope it works a little bit for you! I also had surgery for a torn posterior horn of the meniscus, and my recovery is fine! Before, it was also conservative**, if you don't exercise or something, there will be nothing to do Exercise will hurt, there is no effect, and later during the operation, the doctor said that the condition is still aggravated, and it is recommended that you have surgery as soon as possible.

Remember.

The joint is hot, painful and swollen because of joint inflammation, which causes synovial secretion to increase the shut-off fluid, so the joint swelling is easily seen in the suprapatellar joint capsule, which is your red circle. There is an increase in inflammatory factors in the joints, so there is fever and pain. Now the most important thing is to clarify your arthritis, because after a few days of rest, it is generally not a joint infection, but there are two other possibilities:

First, chronic injury, second, rheumatoid arthritis, third, others such as joint tuberculosis, tumors, etc. Because the information you provide is limited, I don't know if you have a history of strenuous exercise or old trauma before, because it involves joint disease induced by you after walking, and rest to relieve it, young people generally consider meniscus injury, and this diagnosis requires MRI. If you don't have the above, your condition is likely to be rheumatoid arthritis, I don't know if you have symptoms in other joints, whether you have migratory pain in your joints, if so, it is recommended to check some rheumatism tests such as ASO CRP ESR RF and so on.

What's the deal with a hot knee? The doctor admits that the common cause is infection, don't ignore it.
