I'd just like to understand what the theory they teach for PT. I can well understand the need to build back weak or atrophied muscles. Just don't get the methodology of hurting already hurt muscles. Spoke to one friend who had knee replacements and some of the no pain no gain PT. I was laughing at the take pain pills before PT deal and he said that was what they told him to do. That's a lot like professional sports where the score is more important than a players health. Upon discharge from the hospital we had a group PT session, knees and hips. They were big on pushing the knees to do heel slides and bend to a certain degree and the hips doing leg lifts. With my left THR I could easily do leg lifts on day 1. With this one I couldn't even will it to do one. I just faked my way through to get out of there. I'd say that if I went to outside PT they would have tortured me to do them.
@ritabell the shopping cart is the real deal! I've been out walking today but later going to give the super WM a shot for some PT.
I'm walking good enough and I'm just forgetful enough to keep misplacing my cane in the house. I'll walk in a room and set the cane down and then end up walking out without it, then have to go searching for it.
