[|Human|] My fiance has had multiple issues with his left knee, after 6 scopes, he is fi ally having a replacement in a few weeks. His knee continuously swells with large amounts of fluids, which causes calf and ankle/foot edema, often +2-3 pitting edema. As of late however, he has what appears to be a darkening of the skin along with areas of petichiae on his calf and shin. What could this be, do I need to take him to his surgeon or family doctor?
[|AI|]  Hello, I have studied your case. After multiple arthroscopes there is possibility of knee infection. As pre your history infection may be there. You may need to investigate like CRP, CBC, ESRPCR culture is very useful to find culprit organism. You should take him to his surgeon. Hope this answers your query.
