How can i help my knee heal faster?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Knee: Listen to your doctor. Depends upon the injury. Start with rest, ice, elevation, mid compressive dressing. Progress to stretching and strengthening. If not better, good imaging may explain why its not healing and a scope for meniscus or acl, etc. May be needed. Postop follow directions, some modalities/laser/pt and omega/nsaids may help.
