As some of you may know about my situation. 

I will upload my X-rays here, I would love to here what you guys think. Does everything look good?
The locking screws, positioning of the nail, screws etc

I’m 7 weeks post surgery and have knee pain when walking and bending knees. So just wanted to check.

Thanks everyone

It looks kind of disproportionate?

Hey there

I am 2 months post op, but still have a lot of knee pain when I walk. I am walking on crutches now and the pain doesn’t seem to be improving.  It’s been the same for a few weeks now. It’s pretty painful in the knees when I walk to do leg excercises.  I’m so scared that it’s gonna be permenant and will severely impact the quality of my life, although my surgeon said it will go away.

What do you think?  Is it normal to have a lot of knee pain (in the patellar tendon area and where the nail was inserted)   2 months after the surgery?  Or is this a cause of concern?

Thanks man

I am not a surgeon or expert in this man, all i know it should not hurt that much. Maybe nail is infected? Have you asked about your problem to another surgeon or something?
