So PT said I can use a cane. How do you work the cane when you are dealing with two knees? I do not want to favor one knee over the other..so I was thinking I'd just remember to switch hands on a regular basis. Using a cane and favoring one leg over the other was part of what got me into this predicament in the first place!
...and I was feeling so cool yesterday, I walked (with the walker) about 8 city blocks and back...whoa howdee...did I ever have swollen knees..I thought they'd just pop! Dr. apt today, didn't want frowning etc. so spent most of the night with ice and knees elevated well above my heart!
My friends out there with both knees repalced how did you manage with the cane?
Thanks!
