A member asked:
I had knee arthroscopy on dec 6, 2016 to remove plica. started walking soon and over stressed it in the 6th week. now 10wks post op, always painful ?

See your doc: The simple answer is to follow up with your surgeon to explore additional diagnostic & treatment options. Ask whether there are other sources of pain other than the plica. What about articular cartilage near where the plica was excised. Also, inquire about a meniscal tear, patellar instability, tendinitis, scar tissue, etc. If I can help, then join my care team at healthtap.com/dr-clarkeholmes
