Tibial Plateau Fracture - How I Was Dancing After 6 Weeks!

[@GwynneM]

I was 10 weeks NWB and just got cleared for PWB yesterday, so I'm very glad to come across this video so I can do this on days between my PT sessions to get more improvement!

TPF in Apr 2024, and also had knee tendon and ankle twisted a bit during skiing. approaching week 4 PO. really worried of my ROM as i used to have an active lifestyle. looking forward to more information and experience sharing from u. thanks.

Oh wow! How is the rehab going at the moment? I need to get back to making more YT content too! I am doing a lot of the “kneesovertoes” style of exercises at the moment. Def check his stuff out too!

I am 8 wks out after 3 months non-weight bearing and still trying to walk with a walker. I definitely have scar tissue and am only at 70% bend...will be following!

[@AmericanPTstuttgart]

How is it going now? Are you back to activity?

[@HM-ec5vi]

I’m guessing you were very lucky to recover that quickly.

[@AmericanPTstuttgart]

I had one of the worst breaks that the hospital had seen. 8.5 mm complete compression and dislocation of the bone. I did my own rehab and will def soon create a program for others

[@HM-ec5vi]

That’s great. I have type IV non surgical, 7 weeks later and I’m just now feeling like I can walk without my walker. I’m grateful to be non surgical, this injury is no joke. Prayers for everyone’s healing journey.

the link to the tibia plateauonline program does not work. Do you have a new link?

[@AmericanPTstuttgart]

I know! I am so sorry. I am making a new one and don’t have it done yet! I am soooo sorry

[@ThrivingWithGaylaDGaia]

My PT was delayed. I'm 3 months from my break and surgery. Only 70% ROM currently

[@gineenspring855]

That is Great! I am 8 weeks out after 3 months non-weight bearing and only at 70%.

[@ThrivingWithGaylaDGaia]

@@gineenspring855 you were non weight bearing for 3 months? And now 8 weeks past that and at 70%?

[@barbo9248]

What level fracture did you have? A level 1 or 2? I have level 6 so not as pretty as your fracture

[@AmericanPTstuttgart]

Good question. I don’t think they give levels like that in Europe. I had a 8.5 mm complete compression and dislocation fracture of the lateral tibial plateau

[@robertjamesschumache]

What happened to the rest of the videos?

[@AmericanPTstuttgart]

I don’t know? What do you mean? I need to watch it again too 🙈

[@barbo9248]

You are so full of you know what

[@AmericanPTstuttgart]

How is that? This was literally me dancing salsa less than 6 weeks after my surgery 😃. How is tour rehab going?

[@somjyoti05551651651]

I am in my 3rd week...super excited to follow you

[@AmericanPTstuttgart]

How is the rehab going so far? I was a little too busy in my office and got a little backed up with YT videos!

[@somjyoti05551651651]

You are my role model, buddy.. Regular physiotherapy and exercise helped me to gain significant strength. Now, in my 12 weeks i can walk without crutch. Can you please suggest when you started strength building in your lower body? When you had started off with sqauts and calf raise exercise.?
