Thank God you weren't hit by that car. Your soft tissues are really angry right now and it'll probably take at least a few days for it to calm down some. More than likely your implant is just fine. Those things are very tough.
I am back to riding again, doing my best to contain myself & not overdo it ..... 8 miles yesterday & 11 today. I probably could have gone more but played it safe. It’s a lovely 70 degrees with sun & I have so many miles & miles of paved bike trails along the river to explore. I’m loving my new knees so much! I had not been able to ride a bike for so many years or walk my dogs ( who now demand walks)
I am so blessed! I’m on the road to go less then a block down my street to hit the bike trails. In my area, even if I were to ride the roads,almost all roads here have bike lanes. With so many miles of bike trails to ride though I haven’t felt the need to ride any roadsYou are so blessed to have areas like that to ride in. I have to travel far to find nice trails to ride on. I'm stuck riding on the roads and have to watch out for cars.
I’m at 7.5 weeks post op from bilateral TKR. I can’t wait to be where you are! Biking and hiking are two of the reasons I had my knees replaced.
Congratulations on such a terrific recovery!
How wonderful it is to be able to get back to doing the things we love. I'm also a biker and hiker and missed them terribly in my early healing days. What a joy to get back to them!
