A member asked:
Had a partical meniscectomy a week ago.. have extreme pain walking on leg w/o crutches.. is this normal??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Call orthopedist!: Your orthopedist knows the details of your repair, and how easy or hard it was. If he said you could walk without crutches, then certainly extreme pain is not expected. Call NOW and talk to him/her (or the doctor covering after hours for him/her).
