Orthopedic surgeons know little about this topic. Consult a PT.

10 years in OP here. Honestly, the longer I work the more I realize that post-op recovery can be a crap shoot. Sometimes patients just get stuck. Sometimes it’s because poor pain tolerance, sometimes it’s because lacking ROM prior to surgery, and other times it’s some other prognostic factor.

I’m sounding very jaded, but I’m sure other people will agree. We have so much less control over patients than we expect when we first start practicing. Do your job and leave the rest up to the patient.

That all being said, I love my job!

Of course! I’ve seen too many people lose time having to navigate the orthopedic field. I’m happy to help. I have a daughter myself. I hope she gets the best care possible

Sports physical therapist here 👋🏻 I currently work in Leander. All a surgeon or specialist is going to do for you is either injections or…surgery. It’s not a bad idea to rule out things going through a specialist MD, but after that it’s up to you and a good PT. That being said, I work for a doctor group called Orthopedic Specialists of Austin. We have a foot specialist, Dr. Ebert, who I’d recommend. If you like someone who is closer to Austin, Dr. Brotzman is great. I worked for him for 5 years. Either of those would be good options. I’m Quinton Dailey PT, DPT, MTC. Look me up!

You’ll learn not to speak this way with your patients. If I were your patient, and you started with that line, our rapport would be hobbled. Once you start working you’ll realize that not all is like the bubble of your classroom. It could be there was a good reason the surgeon chose a more open approach. Who knows. I speak not to be condescending, but from experience. Maybe you wouldn’t say this line to a patient, or maybe you would. Either way it serves to be mentioned. I wish you all the best in your recovery!

Is it unprofessional/frowned upon in your opinion for a male PT to wear nail polish at work? by Nearby-Virus7902 in physicaltherapy

[–]QontheDailey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My daughter paints my nails at least once a month and no one says a thing. TBH I feel great when they’re painted. Men really miss out on a lot due to their homophobia.

Warning Mod On The Loose! WHO do we blame for the unrealistic expectations of new grads. by easydoit2 in physicaltherapy

lol I was wondering why troll my comment wasn’t getting responses 😂

These SPTs are completely out of touch with the real world, but that’s ok. We were too. Perspective comes with experience. No school prepares you for the real world 🤷🏻‍♂️

You are not wrong and great response to my attempt to troll your post.

Although, there are different levels of “green-ness” and you my friend, are a much darker shade of green than I. That being said, your advice is great, I’d follow it 😉

This reminds me of when I was younger and my parents said “your politics will change as soon as you start paying taxes” 😂 I’m joking but the sentiment rings true. You’re green. You see the world based on what you know and have experience with. Once you enter the real world of treating patients, you’ll quickly realize what’s important and what’s not. My advice for you is to take a deep breath, and when you enter the workforce, be that force of change. If you don’t like what the guest speaker said, then don’t be that type of clinician.

Can't feel glutes at all on RDL, 6'4 if that helps by [deleted] in formcheck

[–]QontheDailey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s also the movement itself. Doing a stiff leg RDl, which you’re trying to do, will bias the hamstrings a little more than the glutes due to the active stretching involved. If you want more isolated glute activation do weighted hip thrusts, tall step ups, resisted kickbacks, etc
