My husband had a knee surgery because he torn his meniscus?

Question

now his knee is starting to hurt again, do you think it is because he over did it in walking or is it inflamed__ this surgery was done like 5 or 6 months ago do you think he just aggravated it because for exercise he started walking 2 times a day and iam thinking that he over did it.....

Help??? doctor nurse anyone

Answer 1

Walking in and of itself shouldn't aggravate it after 5-6 months.  If he was jogging or running it might.  Or if he went long distances.  I would have him try an otc anti-inflammatory such as aleve, and see if that helps.  If it doesn't he should probably go back to the dr.'s.
