arthrofibrosis...what to expecr
Posted , 2 users are following.
Hi,
has anyone had an arthrofibrosis surgery. please share your experience. I had a lysis of adhesions almost 4 months ago and i barely see any improvement. I want to know if my surgery failed or not.
I am still having knee pain when walking, and still missing 10 degrees of extension, and about 20 degrees of flexion

my lysis of adhesion was not so successful as the surgeon was still not able to get me to 0 degrees of extension. that's not even counting hyperextension! he considered releasing my posterior calsule, but thought it was not worth it for 5 degrees. As it turns out, 5 degrees matters a lot to me as im unable to walk without pain. unfortunatel, my extension has worsened since the arthrofibrosis surgery. it is now at 10 degrees or maybe even worse.
i'm going back in 2 months, which is too long of a wait. i'll try to get in sooner

I hope you find relief soon, but please, do not envy those who are up and running, yes they are lucky, but the last thing you need, is to get despondent, you lose perspective and healing will suffer as you will always doubt
