A member asked:
Is it normal for my foot to be swollen 3 days after knee surgery?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: That is not uncommon, however if the swelling gets worse or you are having calf pain contact your doctor as there would be concern about a blood clot.

Not unusual: You need to keep your feet elevated and use compression wrap on your foot to help decrease the swelling.
