I still have scar tissue, stiffness and pain but I did use a jas splint that was ordered. Sit in it at home , keeps knee in a bend that you control how tight. It helped some

Hi mylin,
I still have stiffness, swelling and heat and still have a problem bending my knee. Going up and down steps is problematic. I did therapy for almost 10 months and I finally stopped. It was becoming more irritated and inflamed. Decided to work on my own, and I feel like I am
Improving. Can get in and out of SUVs without too
much trouble. Interested in the splint as my leg knee s crooked and Zi think that might help with the bend and hopefully help it to straighten. Did your doc order it ? Thanks for your help.
