Is it ok to use DMSO on an artificial joint? I overdid walking and all since the knee wasn't hurting at all, but the next day it must have had internal swelling and I couldn't stand on it at all without knife stabbing pains unless I kept it stiff. That was a week ago and the knee is still not back to where it was, even with much icing and elevation. Now 11 weeks past surgery. I was going to get it checked out, but of course, this is the week the surgeon is on vacation.
