about a month and a half ago, i had a knee scope (minor surgery, i think). i went through physical therapy and all of it with flying colors and now i am beginning to have problems with my knee again.
three or four days ago i noticed the upper part of my knee was in a lot of pain. i let my parents know but we all just figured it would pass quickly because it has not been long since the surgery. friday, i noticed my knee started making popping noises and my knee once again was off to the side (which also makes me believe the doctor messed up my surgery). saturday night and sunday morning while i was at a concert with my mum and attempting to fall asleep later on that evening my knee kept popping again. it got to the point where the whole knee was in horrendous pain. since i have been up, it has been completely fine. i am not sure what it is or not but it keeps going on.
should i tell the orthopedic suregon or my primary doctor or see where it goes.

why not and tell your mom again that it keeps popping. she might help you with that.

I think that you should just your doctors and such know. They can find or continue giving you treatment. I think it would be better if oyu just tell them. Good luck.

I would say that you should mention it to your doctor. They don't do knee scopes for no reason. Anything that would be discribed as horrendous pain warrents a visit to the doctor.

i would go to the doctor. i have issues with both of my knees and every time mine start popping, i have to go to the doctor because of dislocations. i hope all goes well.

Hmm.. When you walk.. does it feel like it kinda.. 'caves in' or 'gives way" during or after the pop?
