Suggest Medication For Pain Due To A Quad Muscle Surgery Due To A Tear

My husband tore is quad muscle and had surgery on Tuesday to have it repaired. All the doctor said to him was don t add pressure and I will see you in 2 weeks gave him some pain killers and lovenox injections. My husband says the pain is unbearable, now he does get out of bed and comes down 7 stairs to the living room apparently he tore the muscle and the doctor says he had to reattach it should he be in this much pain it has been 5 days

In my opinion yes partial tear can cause extreme pains unlike complete tear which is painless

reattachment is the only option try keep knee in extended position (passive ) you can try a stronger pain killer like tramadol

Good Luck
