Bend that knee

One guy's ongoing discussion with his left knee

Therapy,

Interesting time in therapy today. Did the normal exercises, except for anytime on the treadmill. 8 pounds on the table, direct to 5 minutes on the bike. Then to the table, with 10 minutes of assisted ankle raises, then manual patela mobes, then overpressure. And the knee was measured at 5 degrees. Yup, 5 degrees. I haven't been in a week, I had knee pain yesterday, and today I had a little knee pain right around the bottom of the kneecap with the overpressure, but measured at 5 degrees. Wacky. Flip side, I did notice on a couple of steps since then the knee started to briefly buckle inward, might be from the fact that at that angle it can't support that weight, but we'll have to keep an eye on that one. With that, a little nervous about mowing the grass, so we'll probably look for some backup for that this week.
