It is only 8 days following the arthroscopic knee surgery, so early days. It involved an overnight hospital stay, being on a CPM machine for as long as I could tolerate. The day after surgery I was in the hydrotherapy pool, it felt great,however by Thursday the knee would not bend, it feels like a tight Velcro band around the knee.
My surgeon has been fabulous, gave me 3 options although surgery was the only viable option to get me back to work. I am relatively young at the age of 52 and need to work. He has diagnosed arthrofibrosis, he may need to complete further surgery or as a last resort revision surgery. I am not sure whether anyone knows how long this will take to resolve.
