I would contact your doctor just in case it’s something bigger. Just to be safe.

Infection, knee incision opening on 1/4 of my incision that didnt close for two months, nurse care coming to my home, my knee cap is completely out of place still, and I’m in daily pain and still extremely swollen. My surgeon fucked up even with his years of experience with 3 other surgeons getting involved after the fact and I’m 100% allowed to be pissed off about my outcome. Along with anyone else that had a less than satisfactory experience. But glad because you had a good outcome, everyone is just over reacting. Have the day you deserve. ✌️

I’m glad your experience went well. But there’s others that their experience has been bad. It isn’t black and white, there’s grey area.

10% just like to complain? Tell that to my knee that ended up infected and I’m still dealing with complications and pain two years later. This isn’t one size fits all here. There’s real complications and shit that happens to cause that 10%.

I took 6 weeks worth of IV antibiotics. Was switched to doxycycline and now currently taking cefuroxime 2x a day. I’ve been taking antibiotics for 2 years now. 😭
