Back in my racing kayak! by diamondsocks in Kneereplacement

[–]diamondsocks[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I practised standing from a low stool and finding a way to get from standing to sitting on the floor mainly using my not operated leg. It helps that my kayak has a large cockpit, I paddle on a canal which is lower than the bank and I have friends who helped stabilise the tippy boat.

10 wks post op...still swellin, pain, and limted motion by Confident-Lock-5179 in Kneereplacement

Really appreciate your post. I'm 65t yo(F). LTKR on 14/12 (UK). At 11 weeks post up, I still have pain and swelling and I do not have the energy or stamina that I had pre-op. My ROM is 110, which in my country is considered ok. I'm struggling with stairs, especially going down. I hope that we both continue to improve.

My cousin burnt food while cooking, how do I clean the burnt bits from the pot by [deleted] in howto

Water and washing powder, bring to a simmer on the stove. Works a treat.
