Are you able to drive while lengthening with an internal device? I'd imagine it would be very possible as long as you weren't on painkillers that were impairing your motor function.

I have been able to drive an automatic car and manual car two weeks after the surgery when soreness disappears

Lengthening is not a problem.

You could drive, but getting in and out of the car could be a huge problem until you have a certain level of leg strength.

It depends, if you do 1 leg at a time you can easly drive a car while lengthening.

There are people who get in and out of their car on a wheelchair.

On unilateral lengthening is easy !! I have been driving 4 weeks after surgery
The first two weeks there was some pain when I drove for more than 20 minutes !! However I used fitbone !
