hi, this is my first time posting, I've had knee issues since a skiing accident in March 2019.

I had ACL surgery, Miniscus repair as well as micro fractures to help the cartlidge inside the knee.

All was going well with the rehab until I slipped on the decking at home in late 2020. Mri Scan showed that I'd torn the Miniscus again, there was more damage to the cartlidge and there was a lot of bruising on the bone from the last operation, so needed more surgery to repair both of the miniscus and cartlidge .

I had the surgery yesterday, I was able to walk out of the hospital, Ive taken no pain killers and can walk freely and bend my knee fully already and walk up and downstairs pain free.

Is this normal and am I setting myself up for a fall and the pain is yet to come? As it feels like I've not even had an operation and wouldn't know I have if the bandages weren't on the knee.

Has anyone else experienced this?
