I can’t wait to walk normal again, Dr. Maman’s got me on the best physical therapy which includes naps and shake weights I guess? Watch to the end to see what I mean 😅

The thing most people don’t think about if you haven’t been there is that it’s not the physical injury that hurts you the most, it’s the mental part. I had a similar rehabilitation for my knee with a torn meniscus, and the thing I struggled with the most was my mind.

Especially if you love sports. But I count myself lucky to at least have the chance to return back to the sports I love by having a proper rehab after the surgery. Had to wait more than a year just for a surgery because of Covid. Now that surgery is out the way I’m blessed to be moving forward and strengthening my knee and getting back to sports.

Can I ask you about this process, would you recommend it? Because I am hesitant, I suffer from a problem with the ligament, and it is not a rupture, but a sprain and swelling of the anterior cruciate ligament, and it has fatty cysts. My friends advised me to have the operation now, and I am 35 years old, instead of suffering as I grow older and also suffer from severe pain in my knee and in the knee flexor

Since I suffer from a physical disability and I live in a medieval house, I had to stay blocked in my bedroom for at least 4 months, even during the recovery. It’s good to see you make progress and your face while the physical therapist moves the articulation remembered me of the exact same sensation. It’s a hard and long process but you can do it! 😊
