A member asked:

Is it normal to have another knee surgery a year later? i had surgery one year ago but i still am having locking when i try to straighten the leg?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Second opinion: The more surgeries you get, the more the complications. Always try to get a second opinion from another orthopedic surgeon preferably at the university hospital before you decide on another surgery.
