App showing muscles and soft tissue after TKR

hi All,

had my mua 9 days ago and as usual it’s been a roller coaster since then. Consultant got 100 degree after mua, spent 11 hours on cpm machine at 90 degree. On leaving hospital was probably 60% under own steam. Day 2 had Physio and got to 70 degree followed by day 3 after Physio got to 79 degree. Great I’m going in right direction.

day 4 no Physio and followed given exercises same on day 5. However on day 5 in later in the day knee went really stiff and swollen and could barely get 10 degrees rest of day and early next morning.

day 6 saw Physio really early explained situation and he massaged knee and eventually got to 40 degree but quickly lost it and feared it was another bleed internally. Saw consultant that evening and he examined my knee and was sure that bleed was problem, it was more likely to be soft tissue damage.

Day 7 had Physio massage, no real help but in evening a friend of my wife called in to show my wife how to massage knee and all leg as it would help in long run. She looked at my knee and forced it back as far as it was humane to do and then massaged top of leg and below knee. It hurt unbelievably but freed up something and I’m now back at 60/70 degree.

My insurers recommended Physio is now getting me deep tissue massages for all the leg as everything is so incredibly tight.

sorry this is so long, what I want to get to grips with is to understand what they are massaging and what else it is connected to..

does anyone know if there’s a 3D App showing this

    There is a company that makes all sort of 3D apps of the human body.  Google.. 3D4Medical and the company should come up with a listing of the apps and maybe you can find one that will give you the information you need.  I have several of their apps....

    Good luck.
