I had knee replacement 4 years ago and recently experienced an automobile accident on February 21, which caused my knee to start popping. An X-ray shows a loose screw. My doctor is conducting lab work to check for infection, and if infected, my artificial knee will need to be removed, treated with antibiotics while in a cast, and then replaced with a new knee. Even if not infected, due to the hardware issue, I will still need a new knee. My knee still functions but just pops. Why can't the current artificial knee be fixed instead of being totally replaced?

My bottom of feet have numb areas, also the area above is dry. I have high blood pressure and take triameterine, clonidine, and atenolol. This started about three months ago, with a little pain, itching, and I've been working my feet less. I had shingles on my head and wore socks for several weeks before this started. What could be the cause and what should I do?

Can I go swimming in a pool with stitches? I got stitches on my chest 10 days ago and would like to go swimming.
