One Response to Mayo Clinic physician comments on sports participation, injuries during CNN Fit Nation tour in Dallas

  1. I have had 2 left knee replacements. 1st time great amount of scar tissue developed. Continous rehab..great pain. 2nd time with different doctor, able to have some relief by replacing portion of lower joint…1st was too large and caused great pain…also caused nerve damage. I still live with great pain most of the time. Is there any form of procedore to treat scar tissue. I am desperate for help. Thank you.
