After osteotomy surgery under both knees the plates are causing pain almost constantly. One was done over 4 years ago the other 1 1/2 years ago. Thinking more and more I should get the surgeon to remove, but how do I ease the pain until then, without always popping pills.
Hello, If these platting are hurting you than it is better that you get it removed. ITIS very difficult to cure this pain without removing these plates. As you said then you do not want to swallow any pills so I would recommend you to take hot water fomentation and knee cap. Avoid squatting and stairs and do not do any cycling. I hope this answer will be helpful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions. Thanks
