According to Wi...Congrats on the knee dislocation. According to Wikipedia <b><i>"Patellar luxation is a common condition in dogs . . . It also occurs in humans, where it can be associated with damage to the anterior cruciate ligament."</i></b><br /><br />BTW, the illustration on the site is of a dog's knee. Couldn't find one for human knee.<br /><br />The REAL question is . . . Why'd you do whatever it was you did to dislocate the thing in the first place? I know, I know, it seemed like the thing to do at the time.<br /><br />In all seriousness, I hope you have a good pain med. I also hope that putting it right is something a good orthopod can do via arthroscope. If they have to really open it up to make the repair then the healing will be long and uncomfortable. I've had arthroscopic surgery before (to clean out the bits of miniscus floating around in my knee joint capsule) and it wasn't too awfully bad. It did leak synovial fluid (elbow grease) for a while but I was walking a post working security less than a week later.<br /><br />Good luck and I hope your insurance if good. Hope the orthopod you are seeing is good, too. <br /><br />Regards,<br />Bad Cyborg XBad Cyborgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-66757247806170716962011-04-23T17:34:28.247-05:002011-04-23T17:34:28.247-05:00If it can be repositioned without surgery, and it ...If it can be repositioned without surgery, and it could be.... you might want to use a knee strap afterward.
