Hi. I've used Bonesmart loads since I discovered it soon after my TKR just before Christmas 2023.
I have found it very reassuring and hope that will be the case now!
I have had pain at the back of the knee/thigh ever since beginning exercises. Despite this I got to 125 on bend and also pretty flat. It was always painful and still is when I do the bend exercises and when I start my 5 minute stints on the bike, which is set high with no resistance.
I can walk quite quickly and up to 2.5 miles so feel my strength is returning but still have the 'tight band', numbness and stiffness. I doubt I would be anywhere near 125.
I think I perhaps worked too hard on the exercises at first and wonder if that has damaged the muscle? Also I had a tourniquet during surgery. And yet I hear of people doing hard PT for an hour at 12 weeks or less.
It seems everyone I know is improving much quicker and I wonder if mine will ever feel normal.
the other knee is due to be done soon and is in very poor condition yet it performs much better than the new knee.
