What Is The Treatment Of Pain In Left Knee ?

My mom had hip surgery after a fall three weeks ago. They put a rod and screw in since the fracture was below the neck on the left side. Her left knee is giving her problems since the surgery. She has been getting Hyalgan knee injections for the last several years and the injections always work. How soon can she get the shots after her hip surgery?

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
The pain in knee could be due to rest that your mother had to take for hip surgery.Early ambulation & physiotherapy should help her.Long term effects of Inj. Hyalgan are no well defined.I wouldn't recommend them any more.
