i am 8 weeks out of surgery i went to therapy as prescribed but knee never would bend, don't think i ever got past a 90 i can straighten my knee with no problem Saw dr yesterday and he immediately said he need to perform an MUA I had a hard time the first 2 weeks out of surgery trying to control my pain and still have pain daily im a bit gun shy worrying about the pain involved in a MUA

My question is how bad is the pain and what is the recovery time? i am a preschool teacher of 48 four year olds and school starts in 2 weeks

Any help would be appreciated
