About 3 years ago I tore my crucial ligament playing football… They had to operate on my knee to realign the ligaments again; I completed 6 months of physiotherapy and was told me knee has fully recovered!
It’s been 3 years now and my knee will still gets very tight and stiff if I walk or stand on it for long periods of time (nothing happens to my right knee) also when the weather is cold outside my knee will be in a lot of pain and once it start to walk the pain gets even worse, I have tried pain killer they do not help. I have been to see my doctor, actually I have lost count now how many times I have been they keep saying its because I am overweight, I don’t believe this to be true as nothing is wrong with my right knee; I just think they are just using my weight against me to stall as the NHS is overloaded and cant take new patient.
Does anyone know what I can do to ease my pain or how to fully recover as its been 3 years now and still I am in pain. Does anyone else suffer from the same problem I have and what have you done to get better? Is it worth me going to a knee specialist and does anyone know how much it will cost?
