Although full recovery from arthroscopic surgery may take a few weeks, I was relieved of the pain caused by my torn meniscus immediately after surgery. I was able to walk the day of surgery and was only inconvenienced a few days as all postop patients need some rest to recover from the trauma of invasive surgery.
Each cryogenic liquid has its own specific properties but most cryogenic liquids can be placed into one of three groups: 1  Inert Gases: Inert gases do not react chemically to any great extent. 2  They do not burn or support combustion. 3  Examples of this group are nitrogen, helium, neon, argon and krypton.
Here are some examples: 1  Gas in liquid: Oxygen in water. 2  Liquid in liquid: The mixing of two or more substances of the same chemistry but different concentrations to form a constant. 3  Solid in liquid: Sucrose (table sugar) in water. 4  Solutions in water are especially common.
