The tale of 2 knees, the right knee wasn't too bad to deal with as far as pain goes. It was straight legged with initial pain for the 1st week and had to be trained to bend with pain, it took a while to regain 125° bend, still needs more therapy to straighten leg more to opposite or flatten out, almost there. Surprisingly after my left knee surgery, I sat up on the hospital bed and my leg went to an immediate near 90° angle and therapist took me for a walk which is criteria to report to surgeon for release or not. I was able to pass all functions for release. However, the pain in this knee was horrendous to start with, have a good supply of pain candy and a good ice pack. In home therapy should start next week. Release 6-19 from hospital same day of surgery.
