@dkapustin My outpatient physical therapist put me on a treadmill immediately! I mentioned that to my surgeon on my next checkup and he said that the treadmill really does nothing to help the knee, that the bike and elliptical were much better for that. He said it couldn't hurt, it's good cardio, but does not really help the knee to recover.
