Midnight Knee Fairy

Knee swells up like a football during the day, but someone sneaks in and deflates it during the night. At least Brady is worth something.

Sorry, man. Feel good and speedy recovery!

Hoping the swelling subsides speeding up a complete recovery. Have they started PT yet?

Oh my.

Best of luck with your recovery.

PT is going well. I can walk easily with a walker without putting much weight on the walker, have transitioned to a cane with little weight on it, and can do stairs without a problem using a cane. I still have swelling after workouts, however, which again reduces mobility. The PT says I am doing great.

Those were how my father's knees look after he had both of them replaced. I told this before but it's still pretty funny. So I ask him how did his knees feel. He said, "I don't have any joint point."

Pretty normal. Gravity pulls fluid down during the day. At night it has an easier time getting back to the heart to get flushed out when you're lying down. Good to hear everything is going well. How are your range of motion numbers?

Yikes! Hope you continue the strong recovery. With only 8 scholarship players, we will likely need you come ACC Tournament time!

I tell patients to watch them after they're done with their rehab. Getting to be in the operating room to watch both a hip and knee replacement was one of my favorite parts of school.
