A member asked:
How can i end knee swelling after getting blood clots from meniscus surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ask the surgeon: The surgeon should have some thoughts on this matter, but be aware that swelling after surgery and/or a blood clot can be very slow to heal and in some cases is permanent.
