Common Questions and Answers about Knee operations in thailand
operation
Traveling in Thailand and then moving to Australia. I have what seems like a small out break of itchy heat spots/bite/blisters, down the side of my right leg (lower down than the the knee) and felt week all of the next day, after being with a questional sexual partner. Are there places to get diagnosed in Thailand or should I wait until Aus. And any ideas if basic travel insurance would cover testing/medication?
I had to have total knee replacement on my knee in 2003 now after 3 operations I am left with a partial bent knee and missing out on life. Is there any hope for me?
Hello
I had an accident where I fractured a part of the tibial plateau. In one knee. It's a simple fracture from what I gather, 4-5 ? inches long, but the x-ray wasn't precise enough for the Ortho. who requested an MRI with a 3-D reconstucted image. She said that if there's too much distance between the bones, too much loss of alignment, surgery will be necessary.
Haven't sought a second opinion yet, but I'm wondering if there aren't alternatives to surgery?
sounds so to me my aunt keep getting operations on her knees one after the other as soon as they replce her knee thngs were alot better she said she ws in less pain an was wlking pretty much the next day
two days back she became very sick and all her body became stiff and tensed so she took her medicine and went to sit in sunlight,suddenly she felt some inflamation in her knees(which is the main effected area of her arthiritus and she cant even stand of walk easily now)...when she looked at her knees there were blood lines under the skin of the knees on front side,looking like internal bleeding and they disappeared at night.....im very curious to know what is that and the cause of it...
Well, without an evaluation it would be difficult to identify the cause of knee pain in your case. Possibilities that may need to be considered include chondromalacia, tendonitis, bursitis, fractures, patellar dislocation, injuries to the internal knee ligaments/ menisci, infections/ inflammations, arthritis, cyst formation, bone growths/ tumours, nerve injuries referred pain from the hip etc;. I would suggest consulting an orthopedician for an evaluation and appropriate management.
Patients with a loose total knee joint limp. The pain is usually felt in the whole knee area, predominantly in the front, along with increasing stiffness and effusion in the knee joint. With advancing time patient will not be able to put weight and diminished motion in the joint.
Diagnosis can be made with the help of X-rays. Revision operation can be considered if there is unbearable pain, progression of osteolysis and loss of function.
three operations-2 on r/knee with removal and 1-on left knee-pined togeather.
Orthopaedic surgeon did McMurray test - was not sure at first whether he heard the clicking sound in my right knee. He did this again and said "yes, i can hear the clicking sound" I did not hear the sound.
2. Bit of discomfort when I start running - Once warmed up it goes away
I then saw a biokeniticist. Also recommended knee procedure. They also gave me strenthening exercises, which I am still doing. Run twice a week and some runs are better than others.
A month ago I was lightly bitten in the knee by a street dog in rural Thailand. As I was traveling and the wounds were only small I didn't really pay much attention to it.
6 days later I found out that the area the attack occurred is endemic for rabies. I kinda panicked and quickly started vaccination at a local public hospital. 5 doses on day 0, 3, 7, 14 and 28.
I was not prescribed immunoglobulin. Later that day I decided to visit a private hospital for the immunoglobulin.
I had a knee arthroscopy July '12. It didn't help and I developed an egg sized Baker's cyst on the inside of my r/knee. I continued with anti-inflammatories and swam regularly and the cyst has all but disappeared. A degree of pain persists and varies with activity. I am itching to travel this year but am concerned that travelling will aggravate the knee and I'll get stuck in a foreign land unable to walk.
im 44 6 ft 5 325, Ive had 7 operations on my left knee. ACL repaired and both cartlidges removed. I cannot stand more than a couple of hours because of the pain. I cannot straighten it nor bend it more than 45 degrees. Would a knee replacement be my best alternative to getting my lie back?
Almost a year and a half ago my boyfriend started to experience chronic knee pain. In February of last year he had a knee surgery to remove a hematoma and clotted blood and dead tissue. Since that surgery his knee has only gotten worse. He has been to every specialist you can think of and has been on extremely high amounts of pain medication with no relief.
I had unprotected sexual activity with CSW in Thailand. The activity was grinding but there was a slight penetration for 1 second at most. In addition, I had 4th generation and NAAT tests at 21 and 28 days, and all the tests came back to be negative. My questions are:
1. Do I have any risk of HIV?
2. Can I put my mind at rest after these results?
I had 2 potential exposures whilst in Thailand. Neither with a sex woker, but both unprotected (well one unprotected and another involved two condoms breaking). At the time I didnt worry about it and didnt even think about it, but since a friend made a joke about 'catching HIV over there' I have become quite paranoid.
My 78 yr old mother has been experiencing continous painful sores/blisters in her mouth with pain in jaw up to temple area. She has been to two dentists, two primary care physicians, alerists, ENT, urgent care & emergency room twice, no one has been able to diagnose the problem & have put her on anitibiotics approx. 10 times now. The antibiotics do begin to help but within in 2-3 days after stopping the antibiotics the problem is back.
Two weeks ago I had unprotected oral sex with a Thai girl in Thailand and ever since I have been worried that I have contracted HIV. I gave and received oral sex. A couple of days after this incident I started feeling pain in my right knee and the right side of my right neck. Since I have been worrying like crazy reading just about everything on the Internet. I have been to the clinic and had a test but still waiting for the result.
I had the Nissen Fundoplication surgery about eighteen months ago, with great results. From the studying I did prior to the surgery, it sounds like the wrap and stitching procedure was too tightly done, and this might result in expulsion of food in the esophagus. I'd strongly suggest you do as much as possible to make sure the repeat surgery is performed by someone with a lot of experience.
I am now taking xanex just to sleep a couple of hours every night after my recent trip to Thailand because of an insane amount of anxiety. I visited a blowjob bar in Thailand two weeks ago and allowed the woman to perform oral without a condom. I was up for many hours from travel and not thinking correctly. She washed her mouth out with mouthwash which I have read will actually kill the good enzymes in the saliva. Of course I do not know the condition of the inside of her mouth.
I understand there are different strains of Hiv and I am asking the question whever all these would show up on an Hiv screening / test taken at a G.U.M. Clinic in the UK. If you had a chance of Hiv after having sex in Thailand and also Europe (Czech Republic) would you need to take more then one test? ONE screening at GUM was taken recently and was negative. Does this mean diffinatley no HIV?
I movies into a house with stairs and when I walk or run up the i feel a ripping sensation in my knee. That’s the only way I can describe it. It doesn’t hurt on impact it hurt when I take off so to speak. Also when I have my knee bent for a long time it’s very hard to straighten it. Sometimes when I walk the wrong way I drop to the ground suddenly because the pain is so bad. The only thing is is that it is not persistent. It’s not a constant pain.
However prior to the operation I used to have blood in my sperm for a number of years and the first two times I ejaculated after the operations it was bloody as before Then I noticed there was no blood in my sperm and this continued for about 9 months Wonderful I thought and what a great success.However after a short lapse of any sexual activity I have now noticed that the blood has appeared again.
