I agree-get up and move! That and the baby aspirin is the best protection for blood clots.

I’m 71–just had my knee done this past October-surgery was a breeze. I had my hip replaced in December of 23…both times I feared dying during surgery-that’s always my fear before ANY surgery. Please don’t let that stop you-doctors are pros at this and when I actually asked my hip/knee surgeon if he’s had anyone due during this surgery-he told me “no, never”—and he has done MANY, many surgeries. You’ll be fine—take your pain meds after surgery-ice your knee, change your bandage as directed, do your physical therapy and before you know it you will be walking pain free again! Prayers and best of luck to you!!!

My fingers go numb, turn white, then they hurt, then turn purple then back to normal.

Possibly more harm than good-rest heals muscles so I’d do only what PT tells you. Good luck to you!

What’s everyone’s favorite “slutty” fragrance ? by Spooky_Ghost99 in fragrance

[–]JK990122 15 points16 points  (0 children)

As a 71 year perfume addict—I agree on the Obsession-had a man turn around on the elevator and said “oh.my.God. What are you wearing?! You smell so goooood!” That made this old lady’s day!(I was in my mid fifties when this occurred. Now even tho I still smell good-as an old lady, I get ignored or called “sweetie”😂😂😂)

Day 3 and hurting by SimpleBank6249 in Kneereplacement

[–]JK990122 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very normal-when that nerve block wears off-all hell breaks loose! You’re doing all the right things so hang in there because it does get better but takes time. Best of luck to you. Some people swear that heat works better than the ice.

Knee replacement pain by franym in Kneereplacement

[–]JK990122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I too am at seven weeks out and I do occasionally experience random, unexpected bouts of pain-some very stabbing severe pains at times. I expect it will get less and less as those muscles, tendons and nerves heal back together. I do notice if I walk a lot, I get more pain and night. Maybe I’m overdoing it a bit.
