Week 7 here. Very tight every single morning. PT works me out majorly. ROM gets to 122* and 0*, but it's like beginning over ever single time. My gait is not right yet. My back and hip are starting to suffer as I start to walk more. Perhaps too early?
Dr. mentioned at 6 week post-op that they discussed using a smaller component during the surgery, and will for my second knee. This took me aback. Is this what is causing my issues? Or is this just slow normal healing? I have a smaller leg, BMI is smaller- do they not size accordingly? I thought that was of most importance!
Where is it painful? I get pain in front right. Do not stop PT and exercises. Keep going!
