A member asked:
3 months after knee plica removal untreated swelling and limited rest post op symptoms are pain, discomfort, muscle loss, creptus, possible arthritis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: You need to see the orthopedist who performed the surgery. Swelling means inflammation and 3 months postop this should not be an issue.
