I want to know the level of this pain,how it feel?unbearable?
I read that as long as the internal tibia (include LON) is performed, there is a probability of knee pain.
Does it matter which doctor performed the surgery?Or it's actually a hard problem to solve?I read that Paley's patients also have a certain percentage of knee pain.
Today I asked a doctor and he told me that most patients will have knee pain, but it is not permanent. If the operation hurts the knee, it may become permanent.
Is permanent the knee pain after the internal tibias surgery unbearable?

For example if a person who never had surgery refers to knee pain, it is usually something serious related to the alignment of the femur and tib around the knee, or bone material has been worn off there.
I had my LON nail inserted through the knee, and my knee pain was related to the muscle covering the knee in the front. When I was squatting at the most difficult angle at around 90°, that was where I felt that this muscle was still very weak, and it hurt. It always needed extra warm up to not be felt.
This pain came from overstretchig the muscle for the maximum gain.
A moderate amount of lengthening and a better recovery would result in very little pain or weakness around that area.
As long as this pain is not related to the bones or misalignment, it should only be a temporary thing, not something permanent.
The way the nail is inserted through the knee should not result in a "trade-off" for normal health around the knee, if performed properly. The two rounded parts between femur and tibias that glide frictionless during leg movements are kept intact after nail insertion.
Sounds reasonable, how is your knee pain doing now, is it better?
