<bot>: Hello, thank you for using Chat Doctor. I read your question and understood your concern. I think you can cure the fusion of your knee by using the following measures: keep the leg elevated above heart level take anti-inflammatory non-steroidal medication such as ibuprofen 400 mg three times a day In the next 2 to 3 weeks don't use the leg too much but the rest most of the time. If no success the doctor can aspirate with a needle the fluid in your knee. I wish you quick recovery.
