Is it possible to have arthritis in your knee after surgery?
Karla D asked:
I know I'm only 17 years old and arthritis is very uncommon for someone my age but I've noticed that my knee has been getting really stiff recently and it's been raining a lot. It's also been hurting but I haven't done anything to really make it hurt. Am I making this up or could it really be arthritis?

Although more older people have arthritis, a person of any age can get it. Also after surgery, scar tissue sometimes builds up and that can also cause pain and stiffness.

Umm you could be right! If you had knee surgery, you might have a infection, a form of arthritis called infecious arthritis. Therefore see a Doctor.
