Would really appreciate some feedback.
Am 8 weeks and 1 day post op RTKR. My recovery hasn’t been an easy one and I’m still mostly on 1 or 2 crutches. The wound finally stopped bleeding after 7.5 weeks (Physio was difficult due to this) and my LTKR was meant to be 2 weeks ago but was cancelled.
I waited 6 years to do this and basically my muscles have wasted away during this long time. On Tuesday I was finally brave enough to do mini squats holding on to the kitchen bench. The night that followed the squats something went ting and I’ve been in excruciating pain ever since. Finding it difficult to put weight on the right knee now but the worst part is the pain when I try to straighten that leg making sleep even more impossible now. Something is catching and I can not describe the pain other than a knife going in. I think I can take a lot of pain but this makes me scream out. It’s been about 30 hours now and we are 3.5 hours away from the doctor. Do I wait and be patient?
