The SECRET To Gaining Flexion * Knee Flexion Mechanics Explained

[@ralphh.2200]

Good video ; Patience is essential....17 months out...age 76. Was worried early on about tightness, felt like the surgeon duct taped about 8 turns in there...he laughed, tried to tell me it was ok but it was a while before it sunk in...could do a perfect straight right away but never could bend beyond 112...I fretted , wanted the 120 but now, at age 77,112 is all I really need. No longer feels too tight...it's pretty good really. I walk a mile every other day w no limp. A recumbent bike was tremendously helpful.I ride 2 miles on the days between walking. Good luck,all...this man knows his stuff.

[@estelleevans4529]

I had a TKR almost 2 weeks ago. I am an overachiever and impatient. I want to be better NOW. You video talks about 'recovery' That hit home! I will work that into my routine. Thank you so much!

[@totaltherapysolutions]

Thanks for the comment and watching.

[@raphsao]

Great video. I had my knee replaced 6 weeks ago and was told that I’m not getting good flexion cause I’m not working hard enough. I do 3 sessions a day at home and PT in a facility 2 times a week. Almost all that you said was what is happening to me and I realize now that I’m not allowing myself time to heal. Thank you for this video.

[@mariaroberti-dr7gl]

Hi Tony. I had a TKR 4 weeks ago and my range of motion is 98. I started doing stretching and exercising since day 4 after surgery and I considered that I was advanced in the recovery process. I am 48 yo and I have worked too hard since I could and now I feel that I got stuck. But at the same time… how do we know that we are stuck? How do we measure that? Now seeing your videos, I feel that if I keep doing what I am doing and I have patience, then I should get results. Right now, my knee feels tight when I bend it (too tight at the front) sometimes too tight around the incision and I even though I do PT and my exercises twice a day (always reaching out my max pain level), I am not seeing a noticeable change in range motion. I have seen many many videos from Drs and from PT experts and I absolutely love your videos. They are so knowledgeable, kind, clear and they give hope to us. The people who you dedicate your life to improve ours. You are great! Thank you 🙏🏻

[@bikelvr426]

Tony, your videos are so very helpful and, at 20 days PO, they're a great source of information and comfort to me. You have such a calming demeanor and I'm grateful that you've taken the time to support this TKR community!

[@titeksobah2068]

Thank you Tony. Such a motivated speech. I'm from Malaysia. 4 weeks post op & feel bad because can only reach up to 90degree flex. My surgeon want me to work harder to reach 120 & it make me feel depress and giving up until I came across this video.

[@alicechu2431]

Thanks Tony, you're awesome. I have the total knee replacement six months before, I can walk normally but sometimes not too stabilize and hard to go up and down a stair. I am a piano teacher so I need to bend my left feet more than 95 degree for balancing while I play, but now I'm just around 90 degree. Just you said I haven't had any good sleep in every single night it's so frustrated and depression but your videos make me feel good and hope. Thanks again 😊

[@williamjackmansor3879]

Your video today is spot on for me. I am at 8 weeks and struggle to get 107 degrees but I do have 0 on my extension. After listening to you today I feel relieved that I am pushing to hard and need more recovery. Thank you and I love your videos have a great weekend!!

Your 75 yo from UK here again. You are truly my guide and mentor. So appreciative of all your advice. Don’t know where I would be without you. 2 weeks from surgery - dressing and stitches off later today. Seem to be progressing fairly well, but what I would give for a nights sleep ! Pat

[@sherryhughes8412]

Three weeks ago I had double knee replacement surgery done. I've had pain in my right leg for at least six years. My quads would tighten up causing much discomfort. I've done exercises and have used knee braces to help alleviate the discomfort. I'm still dealing with that pain on top of having both knees replaced. I often feel very discouraged with the small range of motion I have in my right leg even though I'm faithfully doing my exercises every day. My muscles are continuously sore. I ice my knees every hour, elevate them and wear my compression socks. Thank you for your video I just stumbled upon on you tube. I think I'm being too impatient with my body. Your video gave me some words of encouragement and that is what I'd like to thank you for.

[@teresanumrich]

Thx for this! I’m two weeks postop, and my healthcare plan failed me so no physical therapy. I’ve been watching videos and trying to do it on my own. I’ve been super stressed that I’m not at 90° flexion yet I understand now I need to give my knee up a bit of a break! Thx so much!

[@sidneyrobinson5344]

I just had my right knee replace 3 weeks ago. I have been studying Martial Arts for 55 years. I’ve trained very hard all my life. I want to thank you for your very honest and truthful approach to our Rehab. Thank you very much. I’m in tears now. Cause I was so afraid that I couldn’t train again. Thank you so much. Really. You have provided me a more in depth understanding of my rehab and knee operation. I can’t thank you enough. I am making good progress and am happy with it. I’m not killing myself with pain. I know that you really have to let any serious injury repair or damage take time to heal. I’m 65 and I know that all my training and workouts will be a major factor in my rehabilitation. I’ve been doing it either with weight training. Or Basic Martial Art training. Today I will do what we call basic beginning Kata training. Slow but moving. I will be using my cane for stability when moving the right leg. Thank so much for you sharing such important information. .

[@juneleone9786]

I am new to your channel. I had a TKR 91/2 months ago. My progress has been slow. I hit a new high on my ROM at 117° last week but this week I am at 108°. This is typical for me. I step forward 2 steps back. Frustrating. What you've said in this video has helped me to understand why. I am definitely one who pushes to hard. I definitely need to work on my balance between rest and PT. Thank you so much for pointing that out. So happy I found this channel!

Wow! This is me! I had my TKR in March, I got to 4 weeks and my flexion wasn't happening so I had to have a manipulation after 6weeks post Op. The day after the manipulation I started PT 6 out of 7 days a week. I started to regain motion, but it was back to day one! I am struggling between 93° and 98°. I am overdoing it between PT and home PT on my own I completed 3 weeks going 6 days a week and I feel I haven't progressed enough. I hurt and worry about injury....I have called my Drs office about my issues with my knee cap now. I pre

[@kbbowman8654]

@@lindawestergard4712 you sound exactly like me. I had to check to see if it wasn’t a post I had put… I had the manipulation two weeks ago and did therapy every day from the day after the manipulation until today which is day 10 and I have gained some range of motion, but it is so stiff in my thigh and knee is completely completely bruised, blue, and my thigh, pain and IT band won’t allow me to bend it any further. It feels like my thigh is going to pop… I ice I rest I do everything and it gets very frustrating… How has yours turned out?

[@cherimontana6868]

You are the best. I wish I had you as my real life therapist.

[@homerrebate]

Great video. My surgeon has the same philosophy that the soft tissue needs time to recover. The surgery is very traumatic and although it’s very important to do the physical therapy to regain range of motion, he stresses that you need to take time to rest and recover. I had my right knee replaced 17 days ago and I'm fortunate that so far things are going very well. I had my first PT session 3 days after surgery and I hit 102° flexion. In my next session on day 7 I reached 113°, and I can now achieve 120° with ease. I saw my doctor several days ago for a two-week follow-up and he suggested that I stop the PT for now and just continue to do the home exercises that were prescribed. The reason being is that the PT people have plans which say once the patient reaches certain milestones then they move on to the next level, and based on my progress so far the next step would be to start working on strength training. He doesn't want me to work on strength training until the 6 week mark because he wants to give that soft tissue a chance to recover.

[@Mokey79]

I really believe that you are making a valid point about the recovery needed between doing the work. After five weeks post op of TKR on my right knee, I did my left. The work on my knees are going to be varied for a short time, but I look forward to some real progress down the road. Thanks for the reminder that after doing the work, that you need to rest and allow the body to do it’s thing before doing more work. We tend to want quick results and may be messing up the progress with that lack of patience. Need to listen to our bodies. Thanks!

[@bonnieepps3713]

Thanks I’m on day 10. With the pain block I was 0 pain level. Now I go back and forth I’m using my walker. Do my exercises and hope I don’t have to return to Narco. Is that too much to expect?

[@cathyplatin3906]

You are SO inspiring Tony!!! I am 3 weeks post surgery tomorrow. Doing well and making progress which is what is important. Yes, sleep is getting better but not constantly good every night and I try and not stress about it; just do what I can. Am on a cane but doing lots of independent walking and try to get up and move every hour. Just went to grocery store this afternoon for the first time and took advantage of big aisles to walk down. Did great! Am very encouraged. Not on a bike yet but I think this week. Again, THANK YOU SO MUCH for all your encouragement. It means the world!!!

[@fit4duty724]

Thank you, excellent explanation. I'm a 65 year old very active individual, I trained for the surgery and said to my surgeon I was going to be his quickest recovery..... 12 weeks out and now I'm on the Dynasplint because I just was not getting to where I needed to be with both flexion and extension. you just made me realize I have been overworking it . this is really a lightbulb moment for me. Patience is key.

[@nelliehibbard9147]

Your videos that I have watched I’ve been a lifesaver for me. I am three weeks out of postop from a complete knee replacement. My doctor and Pt have been pushing my leg to the point where I am screaming. Your video that you did where you lay on your back and you put your legs up on the couch made so much sense. This video I just watched confirm that I’m OK my knee is very tight. But just on the top part and that’s good. I’ve only gotten to 90% and that’s OK. Before surgery I was on 4 tennis teams and walked 4 miles 4x a week. I am sleeping good and I am still moving around not just sitting on the couch but my body also need recovery. Thank you for your videos I will keep watching.

[@michelebaker6509]

I needed to see this video today. I am 3 weeks out of surgery and I am very down on things because I feel like I am not progressing my home therapy ended and been waiting on the go ahead for PT. I set up my evaluation appt today for the 22nd in Monroe Ohio Can't wait to start the journey!! Thank you so much for making this video.. it definitely helps with the mental side of the perspective as well

[@sewiteesayas3906]

OMG PT Tony, I feel like you are talking directly to me. Everything what you said applies to me. My left total knee replacement was three weeks pulse four days ago. You video is a realistic and great for me. You made feel better when you have talked about a tight knee. Thank you.

[@marytesta3003]

I couldn't find the video where you used a wedge to increase flexion. IT WORKS!!! At PT I was at only 108 today. I was telling the therapist and demonstrated and hung out about 15 min. I was at 118.

[@garyhouseone]

Thank you Tony. Your seasoned perspective is very useful. You speak with kind authority. If I were to just jump in on the first day post op, trying to do all the exercises and repetitions recommended by a PT educator in the pre surgical program I would need more pain meds and more energy and definitely an ambulance to pick up the pieces. They, nurses and therapists, probably said not to push too hard the first day post op. But, what sunk in to me is that I’m not going to make it if I don’t immediately get to it. Anyway, I’m listening to my body, following directions but not pushing beyond what I consider a safe zone for me…day 2, not moaning in agony trying for 15 min getting off the toilet.

[@chuck7606]

Excellent discussion. You are right, I am becoming an expert in total knee replacement recovery as a patient. Three months three weeks since surgery. Completely miserable but making progress. Flexion near 120 when forced. Thank you for the explanations.

Hi Tony, thanks for the really informative videos, they have certainly helped me with my progression to full fitness following a knee replacement. I start week eight tomorrow, yesterday l hit a 9.5 kms walk covering 16,000 steps my knee feels great and have about 130 degrees bend. Only issue is sleep l currently get about 2 hours followed by a 3 hour sleep then a final 2 hours before l get up, l am hoping sleep improves soon however l feel okay with no pain just aches at the back of the knee at night during the day things are great. That’s my update really pleased with the outcome the first weeks pain was worth it.

[@michaelclarke277]

The video was super helpful to me, because I'm 4 weeks to the day December 25th. The surgery was successful and know sign's of infection, and my scar is looking great. To your point my range of motion is somewhere around 107- 115° my P.T. would like to see 120-130° which I think will come in time, because I'm still swollen on the knee cap and lower part of the knee. I also think my recovery will be a little longer due to having Arthritis for 10years and I was "bow" legged , with bone spurs on the inside knee.

[@kathyclark3168]

Thank you again Tony for the videos especially this one; I have a tight knee but that's what we needed. I'm not doing PT, a little bit, just really recovery even after 7 weeks; it hasn't been a walk in the park but eventually I'll be walking in the park! 😊

I am just getting that 90degree flexion at therapy but not maintaining it yet. My other knee is planned for 8 wks from my first. I am hoping that I will have the flexion to be able to support the second knee when getting up and down and toileting by the time of my next surgery.

Hey Tony-thank you for this video. It’s spot on. I told my PT I have anxiety about coming to therapy because it hurts so bad when they try to bend my knee back. Both today and last Monday the pain was so bad that I am completely done in for the day. I had the hardest time doing the other exercises as well. Why does the PT have to bend it so hard like that. I am 27 days post op today and was 110. I was 109 on Thursday so she said that was basically no improvement. Discouraging words .

Thank you. You’ve made me feel better after going to my PT twice a week and working on my knee at the gym for an hour everyday and feeling fatigued. After 6 weeks of my continuous bending improvements from 85° to 115° has now receded back to 110° on 7th week. Frustrating.
