I recently had knee surgery (loose body removal), now whenever I bend my knee, or flex, I hear a swishing noise. It sounds like fluid is moving from space to space. This is my third surgery (same knee) and least invasive. It s been three days. Anything to worry about? Or is it normal swelling?
Hello, It is quite common after knee surgery. It is due to the entrapment of small debris or foreign particle after the procedure. Nothing much to worry, and it will settle by itself. If symptoms persist you can consult an orthopedic and plan for an MRI scan. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Chat Doctor.
