Knee replacement surgery and infection?!?

My grandma had a knee replacement surgery in September. Now her knees are hurting when shes walking around sometimes they hurt even if she sits down. The doctor said it could be infection but he isn't sure even though they did an x-ray on her they said it looks like infection. Doctor said that if its infection she would have to get 2 surgery's in the knee, i am very worried!! i love her so much and she gets very week when she goes in for the surgery like when she got the surgery in September she got really weak and had diarrhea for couple weeks.. i am very worried!! is this something to worry about or will everything be all right?!

She should be OK. This type of surgery takes a while for the body to get use to the changes especially if you are older.

No one can give you the peace you are seeking that is known to man, other than Jesus Christ. A knee replacement is bad enough, but to have an infection is certainly going to delay her healing. I have three Friends that has had this surgery, one of them had no problems. The two remaining both ended up with infections and a second surgery had to be done.

Ask God to spare your Grandmother the pain and the speed up the healing..She will definitely need someone to clean and dress her knee daily. Lay this at the feet of Jesus, trusting and believing that your Grandmother will be just fine.

My Grandmother died when I was a teenager and I have never
been at peace with it. Although she was a Godly woman, I just miss her.

If it is ok I will pray for your Grandmother.
