My left knee is causing me a great deal of grief recently. I tried the three shot series of hylauronic acid, but I have not seen a decrease in swelling or in pain. The doctor said that the next step is to have arthoscopic knee surgery, but he said that is could wait till the end of the semester. If anyone has had this type of surgery before, how was it? Did it help for a significant amount of time or did you still have trouble after. Right now I go to one of the biggest schools in the country, and my knee is making it miserable to get around. What is the opinion on medically withdrawing? I don't want to look like I quit, I need some advice. Also if anyone had any remedies besides RICE, and advil for swelling it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
