If you don't get it done, you could end up ruining your knee.

But yeah, people who get knee surgery often have alot of problems afterwards.

You should read up on it.

kobe had knee surgery in colorado. it didnt work out too well for him.

I have had surgery on both of my knees. But I doubt I have the same problem as you. This bone in both of my knees formed in the wrong place and it causes my kneecaps to dislocate. Surgery didnt even help much at all. I have to wear a brace all the time on my left knee.

is it recontructive knee surgery? read up about randy johnson (baseball player for the arizona dimondbacks) he had knee surgery not to long ago. and hes still playing baseball.

I don't know if it would be or not. My docter didn't really tell me alot. I know that the cartalidge in my knee is slowly going away, I have weak knee muscles, a nerve rubs against my knee-cap and on Friday a metal pole got smashed right onto my knee cap and my knee was SO swollen I could hardly walk.

isnt that arthritis?

no its not. if cancer was spreading in your body and if had to have surgery to remove the infected part of your body, your saying you wouldnt?

it was a joke

[SnowintheSummer]

well it really depedns on your specific situation. find out what your condition is called and read on it. some knee problems can be "cured" and surgery is definately not necesary, like with mine i have been doing certain excersizes recommended by a sports doctor and that seems to be helping. but if you either a) cant stop the pain or b) if youre told that if you DONT get surgery, your knee will be permanently get screwed up... then go for it.
the 2 people i know that got knee surgery, regretted it, but if theres no other option...

My step mother had both her knees replaced last October...the operation was a success but she still cant walk perfectly without pain. She had numerous surgerys years ago but they didnt fix the problem so she had no choice but to replace them both.
You might as well get it over with because the problem wont go away on its own. Just be ready because I saw her afterwards and she was in a world of hurt. The worst part was when she had to have her knees bent every day....she would scream like a banshee.

cantnokdahustle, is that why kobe was in colorado.

i thought he was just there to fuck some 19 year old

ya i got the joke.

[Punker Than You]

this is the only time and I mean the only fucking time that I will be somewhat nice to you. I tore my ACL and had to have surgery two years ago. However, people generally don't have too much of a problem coming back from them. It took me about a year to fully recover, and I feel perfectly fine now.

However, atheletes generally recover much better than other people because they have stronger muscles to begin with and actually take care of their injury after. So if you get surger, FUCKING DO THE RECOVERY TREATMENT.
