In 2014 and 2012 , in those years of each , I was in 2 vehicle accidents.
Which , I had I have a rod in my neck and 2 disc infused plus a few bulging, herniated and slipped.. AND both knees done. Along with Knee, spine and stomach in the past 3 years.
Anyways, I helped my friend do his floor last week and I felt something popped but it wasn't hurting until Wednesday, which Very bad.. I think something is torn in my knee.
I asked the doctor for a MRI scan, and she said the therapy should help because I didn't hit it or fall.
I have a fear of therapy because when I had my accident years ago, they sent me to therapy and everything go worse. This is after the results on my spine was bad.
I think I might go to the ER later because the pain meds didn't work.. It just put me to sleep for a few hours.
"Ian Harris, a Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia, wrote a book titled Surgery, The Ultimate Placebo. I haven’t read the book, but I watched his excellent YouTube video lecture on the subject. It is an eye-opening evaluation of commonly performed surgical operations that have been tested and shown to be no more effective (and arguably worse) than placebo, or that have never even been tested. He covers the history of sham surgery studies, talks about placebo effects, and explains why so many surgeons ignore the evidence and continue to do ineffective operations. In the process, he provides a valuable education in critical thinking."
I have had very good luck with Dr, Joe YouTube videos. I had bursitis pain in my shoulder about three weeks ago. I could not sleep and I did her exercises for my shoulder and half an hour later I slept like a baby. She helped me get rid of vertigo. Her videos are short and to the point, I highly recommend them. But, since the OP has had surgery, they might want to have specific exercises for their own special case? Anyway, here are the Dr. Joe exercises for knee pain:
