Proximal Tibial Condyle Fracture
Hello Doctor,
I had broken my left knee proximal tibia 2 months ago due to bike accident. Doctor put cylinder cast and after 1 month start the physiotherapy after cast removing.
Now when i start walking after 1.5 months, i noticed my knee surrounding area is swelling too much after 5 to 10 minutes of walking. When i take rest and apply ice then the swelling is reduced.
I am so worried about the swelling. Doctor told me to put knee cap at the time of walking. Kindly advice. Is there anything serious?
I have attached my 1st and latest x-ray reports.
