Yes you can.
It's good and effective.
But it's more and doc has advised you for operation. Then it will be better to take his advise as he has examined and seen you

I had a fall from stairs on 6th may. I fell on my back, left shoulder, left thigh were the impact areas along with both ankles being hurt. I could feel the maximum impact on left thigh (back side) and both ankles. Had difficulty in walking, but could manage. Had problem sitting, so used to sit with weight mostly on right side. Swelling on left hip, and ankles. 8 may- saw a blood clot of palm size on back of left thigh. 9 may- got xray done on both ankles & hips - all clear. 10 may - consulted an ortho online, who checked xray, recommended flexon tab for 5 days. And suggested cold packs. By 20 may I could start walking but still issues in sitting, could only walk slowly, could not lie down on left side, ankles still hurt. I feel my legs are exhausted by end of day. The clot disappeared but I feel my muscles (back of left thigh) tearing every time I sit. Ankles get a bit swollen by night. Pls advise - its been a month, I still kep changing my positions from sitting to walking to lying down. Left thigh muscles (back) feel like burning/stretching/tearing when I sit.

Respected Lybrate user. Don't be worried about this. Please consult physiotherapist and take physiotherapy treatment and, suggestions and precautions. But after 3 months surely go for surgery and after surgery please give to your wife" physical therapy" at regularly and regular check-ups are more helpful and important. Don't be forget about this. All the best.

Do not take painkiller tablets too much. Diclofenac can cause upper gi bleed. To rule out faciomaxillary fractures, get an ncct face done. For redness in eyes use folowing medications:
k-fresh eyedrops 2 drops 3 times a day.
Moxicip eyedrops 2 drops 4 times a day.
Oint. Occupol around the eyes.

I have had pcl reconstruction surgery on 30th jan, followed by knee debridement and lavage on 26th feb due to consistent pain, swelling and mild grade fever. However lab results for pus culture, synovial fluid culture and mtb were negative, ruling out any local infection. Crp and esr are high at 39 and 36 respectively, rest parameters of blood test are normal. After 26 feb, pain was reduced but still it is there. Swelling is there as well. Fever comes and go (99 to 99.5) like 3-4 times in a week. Mri was redone. Result is- marrow edema in distal femur and proximal tibia, moderate joint effusion with synovial thickening and bulky patellar tendonitis. Rest reported normal. Want to know why I still have pain, swelling on knee cap and mild fever thats keeps on coming like 3-4 times a week. What should I do next. I have stopped taking any antibiotics. Not taking physiotherapy sessions also due to pain and swelling. When will pain and swelling around knee cap and fever will go away? Whats wrong with me?

Dear ,
greetings
description tells me that you might have sub-clinical infection. As you are off antibiotics now, we need to see how your feels after 2-3 wks. Repeat your crp and esr levels. 20 days post surgery there should not be any other cause of fever even though its mild. Swelling will take long time to around 6 months or so. Your doctor may advice culture from knee fluid once your are off antibiotics for about 2 wks. Was the second mri with contrast?
You have more pain in bone...more

Hi lybrate-user,
firstly, physiotherapy treatment is not just restricted with muscle strengthening, it also corrects the biomechanical changes occurred due to the meniscal tare.
Secondly, its takes eight weeks to develop muscular strength but once the muscle memory is developed, it will take 5-6 months for it be forgotten. Hence, maintenance exercises done ocassionally, can help you to keep up with the strength levels.

Rest prevents further injury and avoids stress on already inflamed tissue.
Put the ankle joint at rest by wearing a brace or splint.
Ice is probably the best treatment.
Ice will counteract the increased blood flow to the injured area.
It will reduce the swelling, redness, and warmth.
Applied soon after the injury, ice will prevent much of the inflammation from happening.
Compression can help keep down swelling. Compression wraps, such as ace bandages, do not provide much ...more

There is no medicine as of now available to increase synovial fluid in knees. You may have to take vissco supplementation injections in the knees for the same.
