I am 5 weeks post op for LON in tibia and currently have some aches in the knee and soreness/tightness.
When I walk with my walker I can feel pain too.
I am able to bend my knees fully, but of course when fully bent I feel some pain
Even when my legs are straight and I’m laying down I can feel soreness
Is this all normal considering I’m only 5 weeks post op from the first surgery and 3 weeks post op from the external frame removal surgery?
When can I expect these pains to go away?
Btw, I only lengthened 1cm because of personal reasons.
