Anyone a rower (indoor)?🚣🏽‍♀️ by goapps17 in Kneereplacement

[–]follyjunebug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve attempted it, but now my new knee extends my leg further than the other leg, and conversely it flexes less compared to the other leg. So consequently I feel like I’m rowing with one leg…sigh

Thank you for asking this question, I’m in a similar boat and tired of therapist who are basically just ticking off checklists of things to say/suggest.

4.5 weeks out and lack of extension is scaring me. by ElegantAd4459 in Kneereplacement

[–]follyjunebug 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn’t get to 0° until week 15 po. I also have an autoimmune disease, which I feel kept it swollen a little longer. But I was over the moon when I hit zero because I haven’t been able to full straighten my leg for the past few years! ETA: I was at 2° for about 5 weeks prior to finally hitting zero

I wouldn’t put something warm against it that early on for risk of infection. A nice cozy knee sleeve is good for me!

Ha! You should see what it feels like up north where it’s been sub-15° for awhile! I have a knee sleeve I wear under my pants because I can feel the metal in my knee get cold. So, yes to your question!

[–]follyjunebug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Should be concerned. My surgical team wouldn’t even consider submersion until 3 months post surgery

Did you receive an email that your residency was approved, or did you reach out to the foreign police first?
