(injured)
Knee update...
I've been good with the exercises - 3 times a day pretty much without fail and I am researching/thinking up variations and gradually adding more. At the same time I'm being careful not to go into the pain too much and also gradually weening myself off the oxycodone.
So today I hit the 60 degree flexion bump stops on my brace for the first time, only 11 days after the op. They gave me 3 weeks to get to here and the average post-op plan gives 4 weeks.
Not getting carried away however because in terms of extension the progress seems slower. Or maybe normal, probably. Plus even if the flexion carries on improving super quick I probably shouldn't go past 100 degrees until I know for sure that the bone has properly healed. I guess I'll get an indication of that on the 24th when I go back and see the surgeon.
Looking forward to getting the rowing machine out at some point.
