I wish you the best @kimberlykolanek895!🙏

A little of the knee turning inward during squatting is acceptable @morganh5611. Usually it should be even on both sides. If not or if it is a lot, strengthen your hip abductors (gluts medius). I have some videos showing how to do that. Sidelying straight leg raise and clam shell exercises are good examples. I hope this helps.

Good question @debbiec6216. Trendelenburg gait usually means the hip abductors are weak. Do exercises to strengthen them. I have some videos showing how to do that. Sidelying straight leg raise and clam shell exercises are good examples. I wish you the best.🙏

@@restorepluspt First off, Thank you for responding, I do appreciate it. Are there other exercises other than the "basis" exercises. I do sidelying leg raise, clam shells and several others. Thank you , Debbie

Good to hear this @miteypen52. I think you are off to a good start. Keep up the good work. I wish you a speedy recovery.🙏

You're welcome @hischosen1409. I hope it helps.♥

You're welcome @michelleocampo3708.♥

It is difficult to say @user-gq3xv1vv6k. The ones I see requires surgery. I wish you the best.

Noted. Thank you for the feedback @girliedog.

You're welcome @dwnwind. I'm happy to help.♥

I would recommend physical therapy in your situation @Empirez1. 3-4 months on a cast is a long time and usually there is a lot of tightness after that. I wish you the best.🙏

I'm sorry to hear this @waheedacassim9737. There are a couple of things here. It is important to determine what is causing the pain. Is it inflammation or is there something else? Also having good strength on your quads and gluts max are important in getting up from sitting position. Getting the inflammation down and strengthening those muscles will be a good place to start. I hope this helps.🙏

Thanks @HollyMccarthy-ko1ur!

You're welcome @NiNitosix. Thank you for the feedback. I am relatively new to the content creation space. This helps.

@@restorepluspt doing great! 👍

I'm sorry to hear this @janetshappard4461. Your fused ankles will make getting up from the floor trickier. But it is doable.

Hey @lyndadonikeagwuana-tc7hp. Yes that can happen.

You're welcome @kortisbraun9798. I'm happy to help.

You're welcome @MeasureCutSew850-ss3pz. I wish you the best.🙏

I'm in my 3rd week after surgery and have excellent extension and hopefully get my staples out tomorrow!

Great to hear that you have full extension and it seems like you are doing well @hollycooper7177. Keep up the good work! I wish you a speedy recovery.🙏

Potty breaks are my middle name 😂

Thank you @melissawhitley7589! I'm happy to help.♥ Please don't hesitate to share it with others!

Good question @lauralofy1676. I suggest strengthening your quads and your glutes muscles. I shared some videos on how to strengthen those muscles in my channel. I hope they help.🙏

Thank you @hischosen1409. I like them a lot too!

Hi @elvispresley6704. You can find the full video in the bottom half of the screen above the description. I hope this helps.

You're welcome @rollysevilla1444! I understand what you mean. The advise I give and the videos I post are free. I don't charge for them. For full transparency, the videos generate some revenue through the ads from KZbin. We do charge patients when we see them in our clinic for treatment. But that's a different case. Please don't hesitate to share my videos with others if you find them helpful. It helps me continue sharing my content.🙏

I'm sorry to hear that @ritikabhattacharya6623. 30 degrees at 3 weeks post op is not a lot. I suggest doing the exercises I showed in the video as often as your can. I use the metaphor 100x a day to communicate how much you need to do the exercises. With ACL surgery there is a precaution when doing the heel slide with the strap. Make sure you are using your other leg to bring the surgery leg into extension. At your stage, you are not allowed active extension in the last 30 deg. I hope this helps.🙏

You're welcome @giorgiogullotta8772! I'm happy to help.♥

Thank you @arousevroll!

I'm sorry to hear about your experience @Barbara-ex3ge. I understand your situation. The good thing is that you have good ROM. 0-120 is very good. Keep up with your flexion and extension stretch to maintain this. The stiffness when you get up is common in your situation. Mostly it's the scar tissue around the area. My suggestion is move your knee every 15 minutes to prevent this from happening. Movement is key that is why you feel better when you start moving. So incorporate that when you are sitting. The pain you have when you walk a few hundred meters (which is not a long distance) is most probably due to inflammation. I recommend icing your knee or even taking some OTC to help you get that inflammation down. Also do strengthening exercises to help you walk further. You can look at my channel for various exercises that can help you. If you need specific instructions tailored for your condition, let me know and we can set something up. I hope this helps.

I'm sorry to hear this @hyannamusic. Sometimes it does happen that the symptoms you feel are not very specific. In this situation, I suggest ruling out the more serious problem which in this case is the kidney issue. I suggest checking with your doctor for further evaluation and testing to rule that out. I wish you the best.🙏

@@restorepluspt thank you so much. If its okay to ask doc, may I ask if who’s the best specialist to go to in this case?

@@hyannamusic the specialist for the kidney is called Nephrologist. For the back, the specialist can be Orthopedist or Neurologist. I hope this helps.

I understand what you are saying @marymwangi7061. One month is not a long time in TKR recovery. Stiffness is still expected at this point. I suggest keeping up with your stretching and exercises to help with the stiffness. I wish you a speedy recovery.🙏

Good question @azizakhan7066. You can do either. I suggest doing it with sneakers first to give you more stability. I hope this helps.

@@restorepluspt Thanks a lot

@@azizakhan7066 you're welcome!

You're welcome @sundarggurung13!♥

Good question @karenquinn8640. Yes you can have a pillow under your head.

Good to hear this @mae1813. That is a good sign if you have no bruising. That means your body reacted well to the procedure.👍

That is a good strategy @jss27560. Keep repositioning your knee and keep up with the exercises. That will pay off in the long run.👍

Good question @kabnis2022. Yes it is possible depending on the severity of your injury. If you dislocated it once, with proper strengthening, the chances of you getting back to doing overhead smash is high. If it is repeated dislocations already, it is still possible but the chances goes down. Check out the video I created for the exercises on how to prevent shoulder dislocation. I hope this helps.🙏

I'm sorry to hear this @SamanthaRoach-wl8lm. Having 90 deg of flexion is an issue not only with walking but also with sitting and stairs just to name a couple. I suggest checking out my other videos on how to improve your knee flexion and doing them as often as you can. Also using heat on your quads and massaging it can help make the stretching more effective. I hope this helps.🙏

Happy to help @darius3550! I wish you the best in your recovery.🙏
