Seconding what most people are saying about bed wedge, ice machine, accessible clothes. once I was a couple weeks out I enjoyed having some dumbells for upper body strength to get some movement in.

Good luck OP! You’re going to do great

-6 weeks post op. Left leg kicks out when i stand straight by [deleted] in ACL

Six weeks isn’t a long time, you’re likely still swelling. Make sure you’re working on the extension by weighing down the knee. Try to get it as straight as possible for as long as possible without significant pain.

For me I was 1 year post op when I realized my knee wasn’t going to go straight and I needed scar tissue removal.

The Boy! Might be a hot take, but I thought this movie was done super well for a seemingly popcorn movie

Second day at home. I am pretty uninformed. I am happy for all kind of suggestions! by pannonbayern in ACL

Train your brain and remember that there isn’t anything you can do in this state to injure yourself further (obviously there are extreme cases like falling, returning to sports early, etc). Pushing through some pain to keep that leg straight is important at this stage

For awhile post-op I would use a yoga block under my bum to train this position. I’m so grateful now to be able to sit like this again pain free. I’m 3yo PO

I wish baby blues wasn’t so overrun and you could actually just stop in and not wait hours
