Recovery from MCL surgery.
Hi all,
Dislocated knee cap and MCL repair surgery in January.
4 and a half months on - as you can see I still have swelling - just wondered if anyone else is going through the same thing ?
Knee still locks doing heel slides at a certain angle , and or though I push myself as much as I can- it will not bend any further.
Doing physio every day - using ibuprofen gel three times a day, ice , stretches - is it normal for this to be so swollen at this stage ?
Any other tips for recovery? I know it’s a long process , and progress can be slow.
I could do with some positivity, as I get easily frustrated haha.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks for reading this
