Domt Know What to Do
Posted: 11-15-03 16:42pm

Hi,
I fell about 2 weeks ago-- I had xrays and a mri nothing was shown on theese- ive been in the hospital because I have soooooo much pain-- they gave me morphine-- anyways my whole leg was black and blue-- it went down to my foot-- its still very much swollen- (my knee) when I was in the hosptial they drained my knee and my shin to get some blood out-- but almost 3 weeks later-- im still having extreeme pain I cant bend my knee or put wieght on it-- my dr thinks hell put me through phyical therapy-- ouchhhhhhh but do you think they could have missed soemthing in the mri? What should I do? Is there something that they coud do surgically to fix it? Even thoughthe mri didnt show any torn ligaments or broken bones?
Thks

Get a second opinion esp. If you are still hurting so much at present and can't bend the it! Do you have enough pain med to get through pt if that is what is required??
