Fractured Patella
I tripped and fell on my knee...and when i went to the hospital they took x-rays and said that i had a fractured patella..i'm not in much pain but i can't bend my knee. i can sorta put some pressure on my leg and walk sort of but i'm stayin on crutches for the most part. I have to go to another doctor and he'll tell me how bad of a fracture it is. is it possible for u to tell me how bad it is by readin my condition? cuz i heard that if the fracture is really bad i'll need surgery and i'm not lookin forward to that. any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated...thank you
