Twisted new knee; how big a deal is this?
Thanks, Jim. Yeah, I watched a video of a knee surgery before I had it done (BIG mistake, since I was already so very apprehensive about it) and saw the way they slice the bone surfaces, drill holes in the remaining bone, and screw and glue, if you will. Seems very sturdy. I just wanted some reassurance that it wasn't a big deal. :)

You don't drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there.

MY SURGEON AND PT tech. said the same thing. I was told you could aggravate the muscles and tissues around which are tender and still healing....causing swelling and soreness. I have found them to be right.
doesn't hurt to call the surgeon or his PA if you are concerned. that's waht they are there for
