i had a meniscectomy a year ago for a painful right knee meniscus tear. my knee still hurts and pops. do i need to have a revision? i had to pay cash.

Question

My knees popping after ACL and meniscus surgery. It doesn't hurt but sometimes i loose balance. Did I have a re tear?

Answer 1

Depends on dx.: Whether you have to have your knee 're- scoped' depends on your present diagnosis . If you have retorn your meniscus then probably yes. If your knee is hurting because of concomitant knee pathology ( associated arthritic changes) then possibly not... Other treatments may be helpful. Get a precise diagnosis from your surgeon and realistic expectations of prognosis . Best of luck!

Answer 2

Repeat the test: Sometimes it takes up to a weeks for the urine test to turn +. If you feel pregnant and continue to have a negative urine test i suggest that you have the more definitive blood test.

Answer 3

Back pains: The word "serious" calls for need for assessment by an orthopedic specialist for diagnosis & recommendations.

Answer 4

Water retention: It could be other things, but probably some lingering hormonal changes like water retention. If you think pregnancy is possible, then do a test.

Answer 5

Many reasons: The clinic should have already told you possible causes, could be pregnant or problems with your female hormones you need the results of the blood and cultures and i recommend getting a pelvic ultrasound by a gyn doctor.

Answer 6

Many causes: STDs usually cause too much bleeding rather than delayed periods. Stress,weight, exercise, diet, medications, and diseases such as thyroid disease,diabetes/insulin resistance, PCOS, adrenal disorders, and pituitary problems can all cause you to miss periods. The clinic probably tested for all of these,and you should have your answer soon. Best wishes.

Answer 7

Probably normal: If you do not have pain and no fever then this may be normal. All of our tongues have bumps on the back of them and just maybe you never noticed them. The tonsils can collect debris and dead cells that slough off and these can collect as small white plugs in the tonsil itself. If there is no pain it is unlikely that you have an infection.

Answer 8

Infection: Pus is an absolute sign of infection. You may have a bacterial infection. I suggest you see your primary care physician promptly for a diagnosis, which may include a painless culture & a regimen of the appropriate antibiotic. You should recover quickly.
