MRI interpretation
Hi there!
My mother had partial meniscus surgery 45 days back and after a month her leg got slipped all of sudden from a chair which was kept for her leg to be streight for pain relief 4-5 times.
And then the pain started increasing in her whole leg to that extent where she could barely stand for 3-4 min.
Now we showed to another doctor and he had recommended some test and found her ESR is 64. After that he advised for MRI for knee and took sample for culture report as per the findings.
Can anyone suggest what should be done after seeing this MRI reports. And who will be the best surgeon in Bengaluru for the further treatment.
And also is there any knee replacement required as per MRI report or with the medicine can it be cured?
Please do help

The MRI report shows evidence of infection. This will have to be controlled for pain relief. Total knee replacement is not the option now. You can coke and visit us at Prakriya Hospitals on Tumkur Road. We have a comprehensive Orthopaedic setup. Have a look at www.prakriyahospitals.com for details and contact information
