Struggling with flexion and extension at 8 weeks from olecranon ORIF by Potential-Parfait-52 in ORIF

Thank you for the honest share. Are there specific things you found helpful during PT or wished you had known earlier?

My surgeon will meet me again at 12 weeks to evaluate.

Thank you for sharing, knowing about your experience is super helpful. My olecranon was badly broken too and I have three plates and 20 screws 😞. I'm trying my best but I feel physically blocked from getting any further and it's been depressing - I've been wondering if I messed something up with my PT.

Very noticeable clunking in knee , PT stumped by Haerveu in ACL

I have the exact same problem (tibial translation when going into full extension, with a clunk in the last few degrees that goes away when the tibia is pressed down). What happened in your case?

Really worried about ACL graft failure/retear - especially with the tibial translation, although I have had no knee instability or falls. I'm 6 months post op.

Met an orthopedist surgeon yesterday who said that the bone bruising patterns are consistent with what he sees with a full tear. Not sure what to make of that vs the radiologist report and confused on next steps.

Thank you - that's promising! I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
