What is the best way to treat bone bruising at femoral mcl attachment? injury occurred 10 months ago, still causing significant pain. currently waiting to see a surgeon for possible torn medial meniscus but waitlist is approx 2 months?

Orthopedic injury.: Obviously your orthopedic surgery evaluation will be very important. Acupucnture can be used as a adjunct to any other treatments you are using. It can help to reduce pain and inflammation. It can't take the place of surgery but it can still be very beneficial. Take care.
