knees are bent after frame removal surgery

Edit Post

Are you not seeing a physiotherapist ?

Edit Post

my physiotherapist is not state of the art . where they have facilities. i dont think they did a great job taking care of me thats why i had to stop early at 5.5 cm . my pt focus on my ballerina feet and gave me massages during lengthening . i feel i missed out alot of real pt during lengthening .

after one month and a week. i can walk 10 steps unassisted. its not the best of walks though. im walking more like spread legs and at a slow pace. i shouldnt walk unassisted though not after 2 months say the pt guys. the guys ive seen actually walk after 1 month unassissted but things can go wrong. will probably need a new job after because i worked at doordash and i dont think i can go up stairs like i used to. maybe a job at uber taxi. a job i dont look forward to because i heard bad stories . hopefully my area is good though not like the ghettos.

are you able to fully straighten the knees now? without pain?
How is the bent when you wake up in the morning and how long does it take to straigthen the legs from when you wake up?

Edit Post

When I wake up my right knee is a little bent but I can straighten out by stretching for 5 mins. I usually use a chair in the morning to get around. After I'm awake 15 mins I'll use crutches.
I find my ankles aren't fully touching the ground when I walk without crutches. I still feel a slight pain at the top of my ankle where it bends. Probably 1 more month I'll have better flexibility to walk without pain at the ankles.

After reading a few forum post I have this medial knee subluxation. My knee is slightly bent inside. Not sure how I can fix that. Maybe with time it will bend back into place. Maybe wearing a knee brace will help.

Looked at my previous xray and I already had my knees pointed inwards already. Maybe even before the surgery.
 Not sure where to go now. Probably wait for bone healing n get stronger and hit the gym for flexibility training.

currently walking on crutches and found a new walk where my left leg is straighten out and can be extended. before my left leg was never extended when i was walking.
i can walk without crutches unassisted now but only for like 10 walking steps. here and there. ive notice im putting alot of pressure on my screws and i can feel it more than i do when im walking with crutches. hopefully the pressure on my screws goes away. and im walking wobbly probably because im still weak from the bones.

Did you tell your doctor you suspect to have a subluxation? What did he say?

Edit Post

I told my pt guy and we compare thigh. He says everyone has it and it's normal. I might be a little paranoid I guess . It just on the xray my thigh bone goes inward a bit but I guess I did hard exercise and it's normal. I've looked it up and they talk about medial knee pain but I don't have any pain. So I shouldn't worry.
