I am now 18 days post op and I was doing so well until... I developed a killer hematoma that sent everything sideways. While doing PT, the tech noticed this and said I should go to see my surgeon. My surgeon told me to put a compression sleeve on it and to see him in four days. I did. The pain from thia overwhelmed my knee pain and I suffered for two days and then suddenly it seemed fine. I did a few stretches and it was back again within minutes but without the associated pain. This led to another day of nothing but compression and ice.

This morning I am fine and the hematoma has subsided. I can feel the pain in my knee which is not much. I see the doc this morning. BTW I had 122 degrees of range when this started. I hope that I will be able to resume PYT and get back to that range of motion quickly. Wish me luck.
