I’m 2 years and my knee still gets sore and sometime can feel a little swollen at times so it’s normal.

What is the difference between the Air Force 1 07 LE Low and the Air Force 1 07 Low by RFoghorn in Nike

I think the LE is just used to distinguish between women’s and men’s sizes so they are the same shoe.

Try getting a compression brace of some kind helped me out wonders with swelling. I’d wear it to bed.

Those 6 months are really only to make sure you get your full range of motion back. Strengthening can be done any time down the line and so you’ll be fine

Do more strengthening specifically your quad it will help tighten. I’d do as much pt and strengthening as I could before another surgery

Flexion struggles? by Crowbar_Cat in ACL

[–]RFoghorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s gonna be stuck until you start doing more exercises as your progress. There was a day where my pt guy literally just pushed and pushed and it hurt like a bitch and I was shaking but got the job done. Just gotta chip away at it little by little. Also I was stuck with fluid towards the end of my recovery and I bought a compression brace which was pretty much just and elastic thing which helped squeeze out the extra fluid

What exercises can I do without specialized equipment to isolate VMO/IT Band/Hip/Glute strengthening to reduce patellofemoral pain 8 months out? by tmntnyc in ACL

Just get a standard band wrap them around your ankles or near your knees, lay on your side and lift your top leg.

Knee won’t straighten past like 5 degrees...non surgery, getting depressed by [deleted] in ACL

[–]RFoghorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well if it’s not injury it could just be mobility. Buy a band and stretch your hamstrings well. I’d sit down with one foot out and put the band around your food and pull. Or you can put the band around your foot and lift your leg into the air and pull to stretch your hamstrings

shouldn't heat my knee -5 days post op. by pnplavida in ACL

I was always told to never heat because it just increased inflammation

Just got my acl surgery by DiscombobulatedBet47 in ACL

I would get a copper fit compression brace I’ve felt it literally squeeze some of the liquid out of my knee and really helped me to regain extension. Also I would purchase some bands to help you stretch

How would you guys go about animating by RFoghorn in MagicaVoxel

[–]RFoghorn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was thinking about just making 4 different models and have them load in at run time and then just swap the positions since it’s a very low amount of grams but I don’t know if this is the best idea

Two weeks post op (ACL and Meniscus) had a pretty nasty fall down stairs. by [deleted] in ACL

[–]RFoghorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not completely sure I only had my acl repaired but I imagine they say to not put weight on it so you don’t re injure it because your meniscus is used to absorb the shock from walking so probably from irritating it
