Left Knee Meniscus injury and MCL sprain

 

Hi Mohit

 

I suggest that you should stop taking nucoxia  on a regular basis now and only take it if it is painful.

I suspect that the stiffness is due to MCL strain and should settle with time(it usually takes a minimum of 6 weeks for mild MCL sprains to settle). If you feel that stiffness if improving with time then wait for 2-3 weeks, it might settle as the sprained ligament heals. I would like to examine you again, you can fix up an appointment to see me at Columbia Asia over next few days.

 

Kind regards

Doctor Jayant Hello Just to give you a catch up on me. I had this left knee meniscus surgery done 3 weeks back. now all dressing and the pins are out and i have been doing those two exercises half an hour a day. Doctor the stiffness still persists. If I am sitting for a long time and get up its more. At times i also feel a slight pain in case it moves sideways..otherwise walking and driving has been really normal. Have been taking Nucoxia 90 for 18 days now. Is this normal or i should do something more? Thanks a lot for your time. Best Regards Mohit Khemani Ps: More info on me I am Rashmi Hingorani's Brother.
