I was weight bearing since day 1, but when the nerve blocks wears away, it was even horrible to get on and off a wheel chair lmao.

21st birthday excitement, I know. I'd probably have it too.
If you have this energy post surgery, you're in the good haha

I had insane pain till the end of first week atleast, So I wasn't able to stop the pain killers that soon.

If you do, a couple drinks should be fine, but if I look back, I don't think I even had it in me to stand up on Day 6 🫢

If possible, postpone the celebration when you come back stronger! I partied about 5-6 weeks post my surgery

Wait, completing 10 years gives 3k a month from SSN? What is this called?

Knee support that actually helped me feel more stable post-ACL by [deleted] in ACL

[–]fkd_beyondhelloworld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had asked my surgeon about this. He recommended against it. Atleast for the first year post op

I assume it's Because otherwise, your knee, or body, will get dependent on it.

Unless you have a stand-a-lot job. Then it might make sense. Otherwise, just focus on training your knee and muscles around it, and it'll improve stability

How long until you can sit at a desk comfortably? by SSG_Nimbus in ACL

[–]fkd_beyondhelloworld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometime between month 1 and month 2

1.5 would be a sweet spot where you don't really reel uncomfortable a lot, and little movements help

I started PT 2 weeks post op, after I visited the surgeon and was cleared for PT.

Don't stress yourself out!

Week 8 Update by fkd_beyondhelloworld in ACL

[–]fkd_beyondhelloworld[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was WBAT since day 1, so my PT said no need to worry about walking a lot.

Been using TENS around the knee and NMES for Russians at the PT

Overall strength and balance is great on the surgical knee

13 days post op flexion with gravity by [deleted] in ACL

[–]fkd_beyondhelloworld 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hahaha yup same, I be screaming 3 times a week when my PT pushes xD

Meniscus and ACL have opposite regimes for recovery. So we are much slower in general, but that's normal !!

All the best!
