A member asked:
Had oats procedure 5 months ago. just had knee drained & there was a little yellow synovial fluid and then a lot of red blood. what could this mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Inflammation: Knee still inflamed and healing post-op. Needs more time. If persists long term, then this could indicate poor healing of the oats procedure.
