Hi, I had my first PKR in Oct 24th and my second February 26th.
I had a partial revision done as the plate was not sitting right and caused me awful pain when in extension. I was told xrays look great 3 times until I finally couldn’t handle the pain anymore. The surgeon got me in fairly quickly and revised the plate and shaved more bone.
My question is, I felt I was recovering so well in the beginning because I could straighten my leg without the pain. Now every time I am “living” my life I get excruciating pain and am back to square one.
Should I be feeling this much pain still at 9 weeks? It is when I’m on my feet to much. I’m 48. Am I just doing to much and expecting to heal to quick? Feeling super bummed. Also I have perfect ROM.
