People who are active - how long before you got back?

Runners? How is it? Soreness or aches?
Tennis players?
Yoga lovers? I miss doing yoga but the stiffness 2 months post op - not sure I should push myself and when I should even try to.

How about swimming?

Itchy? Allergy vs healing itch?

7 weeks post op but not sure if this is my body rejecting the hardware or is it normal healing? Let me know if you went through this and how long and what products did you use.

Best stretches and exercises that helped you.

For my fellow post ORIF who are past the stage of NWB. I just realized 6 weeks after surgery I can stand and put some weight. Would appreciate any tips on what helped you the most to get full ROM back.

I’ve been fairly active everyday prior to this and I miss yoga, running, and tennis. Not sure when I’ll get back to them but appreciate your help!

Just 5 weeks post ORIF and wondering what exercises worked for you guys!

Also how long was your recovery from surgery to walking to doing stairs and to running? Does it still hurt or not at all.

Women who wear heels how long did it take until you were able to?

I appreciate your tips too.

I can’t wait to get back to walking and running.
