Acl surgery bursitis Videos

Excellent videos!!! Very much appreciated :)

I had prepatellar bursitis twice along with patellofemoral pain syndrome and a dislocated patella. The first time the recovery was horrible, the second time it healed up perfectly. I went to the doctor both times.

Wow, I've seen several doctors, had x-rays and even an MRI. All they said was plantar faciitis and achilles tendinitis. I've been doing physical therapy exercises and taping and this has helped those two things. But the heel pain, in the middle of the heel, which gets worse as the day goes on still remains and gets worse if I walk much (normal household and errand walking, not walks for exercise). From what you describe, it certainly sounds like intercalcaneal bursitis. My physical therapist did something to move the calcaneous (sp?) bone into place and that helped, but she only did this a couple of times. I think it stayed in place after that, but not sure. The silicone heel pad in my shoe seems to make a difference, it's hard to go without it. And yes, I spent a lot of time standing on hard surfaces since I do (did) woodworking. If I am able to resume woodworking, I'll do it on grass. Thanks for giving this thing a name! Maybe I can get some help for it. I'm currently wearing correctoes, but not for very long. Wearing them with Crocs (with the silicone pad in the heel). So far, so good. I was wearing rocker shoes at the suggestion of my PT.

Why are you draining this at home and not as an inpatient in hospital? My husband just had surgery for a septic prepatellar bursa that resembled much like your knee. His surgery was on 8/4, he came home 8/8 and hasn't slowed down yet. I thank God that the doctor caught it this time in the ER. He was admitted and operated on that night. Please don't let this go. Without IV antibiotics, he may have had to fight for hid life. take care.

Thanks for the information. I'm pretty sure this is my problem right now. I go to the doctor in two days. I'm hoping this isn't a long term problem. I'm quite athletic and this has already put a damper on hiking season.
