Good Evening 2 Years Ago I Had A Total Knee
Good evening
2 years ago I had a total knee replacement.
I was told to take prescribed medications before any medical procedures including dental appointments.
About a week ago I had a colonoscopy and completely forgot about taking the medication.
Yesterday my knee started to bother me and this evening it's hard to bend my knee and it is VERY swollen.
Should I call my orthopedic doctor tomorrow? I'm so afraid I did something wrong.
Thanks
