I have osteoarthritis which is fairly isolated to the medial compartment of both of my knees. I came down with Covid in early December. I had a mild case compared to those that have to go into the hospital. In January I began having severe pain in both of my knees. I am absolutely convinced that it's from Covid, like it's settled there and won't go away. It's so bad that my life has been altered big time. I no longer can walk or stand for longer than maybe 10 minutes. I have been getting steroid injections for several years, but I have a knee replacement scheduled next month at the Mayo and I'm very nervous. I wish there was more information on the after effects of covid relating to knee joints. I have researched this so much and have found very little information which I know is because this is all still very new. Has anyone else noticed that their joints are bothering them way more after having Covid?
