Weird knee pain & IDK what to do anymore
ACLR w/quad graft apx 7wks post op. I have a sharp aching pain in my knee, the bottom right of the knee cap. Sometimes when I bend it, it feels like a foreign object rolling across the bone, or through my knee. I do all my exercises religiously. I’m still icing it throughout the day. I take my anti inflammatory. I’m wearing an incrediwear sleeve. Eating plenty of protein and vitamin C. My graft incision still aches, but in a different way. This is all probably normal. But it’s so uncomfortable. I have taken my tramadol more often recently, but it makes me jittery and I can’t fall asleep until 1am.
I’m just venting, I guess. I’m so bored. I’m not sure what to do anymore. I’ve read books and watched movies and am currently crocheting a whole blanket. I’ve cleaned out closets and reorganized my entire house. I go down rabbit holes on YouTube. I just miss being able to be active and go for a hike or paddle. I’m bored of sitting around and sad I’m losing so much muscle mass. I do PT 2-3x a day as prescribed, but don’t want to overdo it.
Anyway, I’ll take a double double with an Arnold Palmer.
