You're welcome.

[@daniyalmaqsood07]

Any improvement?

[@bendutton]

yes it did but slowly but surely but in my case partial squat and heel slide did the trick

Thank you so much I literally just twisted my knee getting out of my car and could not put any weight on it I ran to KZbin With my symptoms and came across your video I hobbled to the back seat of my car since I am at Walmart And grabbed a piece of clothing rolled it up like a towel And I could not do exactly what you were saying with the twisting but grilling up the towel and placing it where you said to do so And relaxing it and then Putting it at a Kind of a standing tree pose but sitting down It finally remotely relaxed and I was able to straighten my knee But the folded up towel under the leg was definitely what helped I felt it slipped back into place Thank you thank you

You're welcome. Glad it helped!

Thanks Steve O!

I had a bigger right knee and I can’t straighten my right leg. Will it get better overtime?

[@danyelle6525]

Hello! I have bilateral severe knee contractions where I cannot straighten or bend my knee all the way. This started about 10 years ago. Would these work for someone like me? Also I’m a 56 yr old female. Thanks!!

[@_yak_attack9919]

After 1 video I’ve been able to straighten my knee more than I have been able to in almost a year. Even after visiting numerous PTs. Wow I’m impressed, by the diagnosis section it was a joint mobility issue. How many times a week is it recommended I do this routine to get to full mobility?

[@More4Life]

Typically daily works best until you've improved your mobility to where you want it to be, then a few times a week as maintenance.

[@estrellamunguia4423]

I ve walked for over 25 years with knees bent to compensate for pain. Iam down 130 lbs what can I do to straighten. They are like cemented on this position. Ty

[@More4Life]

You can try the exercises in the video to see if / how much they help, but if it's been over 25 years, there's a chance they may not straighten all the way.

[@shelbylou02]

Im 10 weeks post-op from a RTKR. I still am 10 degrees short of full extension. Wohld you be worried ? I am !! Tfs 😊

[@More4Life]

That's farther behind than ideal, but not so far to be "worried" per se. But it is something to pay attention to. Talk to your surgeon and physical therapist about it and strategies you can use to improve. Here's a Knee Replacement Tips playlist that may give you some ideas. kzbin.info/aero/PLsxYq2xJHBAmnHzHr19S_2WCXxIDrJyCn

hi goodday my name is Raymond Rolle im from the Bahamas and i have a question.Ive have a accident in September of last year to my tibial plateau and couldn't receive surgery until 3 weeks ago but i can't bend my knee straight nore bend it straight what do i do?

[@More4Life]

That soon after surgery, listen to your surgeon and physiotherapist. You should be getting therapy right after surgery. These tips may be helpful for you at some point, but make sure to check with your healthcare team about post-surgical precautions. Good luck!

[@raymondjrolle3978]

@More4Life i did therapy 3 months after my accident and it still wouldn't bend

[@sarant1satt683]

​@@raymondjrolle3978do an mri maybe you have ruptured your patella tendon

[@Trust788]

What if it's a joint issue, will these excercises still.work please help

[@More4Life]

In most cases, yes. If there are severe bone spurs inside the joint, that can limit your knee extension.

[@Jupeeoe]

I hade an external frame put on my lower leg it made my knee lock bent after months now i cant put my leg up or forward My tendons are stuck behide my knee I googled it and nothing came up on the matter much their only talking about pains and injuries and stuff nothing talks on the matter of what happened to me my external frame was on for to long have you got any ideas on what to do the surgeons think amputation but I don't want to do it

[@damodaranp7605]

What if knee ffd 30 degree with further flexion up to 120 degree after tkr?

[@More4Life]

Largely, the tips in this video should still work provided your surgeon and PT have given you the OK to do them. Here's another one that may help with knee stiffness after a knee replacement: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qIbLh2aqhKppppo

Thank you for great video❤❤❤❤

[@More4Life]

You're welcome!

[@gilbertcortez6209]

You mention that the back of your knee should be flat against the table? But the back of your knee is not flat against the table? Is it supposed to be flat against the table or not? Even with my wife pushing against my knee she cannot get the back of my knee to touch the table. Is this normal? Is that an indication of a joint problem? I'm a little confused. Thank you. :-)

[@More4Life]

In the ideal world, yes. I've never been able to get my knees flat even as a child. (I remember coaches pushing down on them during pee-wee football when doing warm-up stretches.) So the biggest indication would be is it different from the other leg, and is the lack of being able to straighten your knee causing you problems.
