Hi, I am currently 1 month and 14 days post OP and I don’t know if I’m scared or if theres something wrong with my knee. But I am unable to bend it past 35 degrees on my own and hanging off a bed I can only go to 46 degrees. When I try and go further I am in immense pain.The day after surgery I had been hospitalized because I couldn’t handle the pain day after the surgery and was rushed to the emergency room because I couldn’t stop screaming and crying. Now my knee is extremely stiff and I am not sure if it’s scarred tissue or my fear of the pain that is stopping it please let me know if anyone relates or if someone can help. (I am taking daily anxiety medication and take a stronger dose before each session and I still can find a way to push through please help!!! Also this is my first major surgery I’ve ever had.)
