When do you come off the walking stick been on it two weeks now don't use it inside at home just outside as still need to strengthen my quid
Whatever works for you I would say. If you feel steady that's what's important. Your doctor must have told you something on that?
Hi Kathy got told nothing at my 6wks check up as the clinic was running late and it was a doctor who I never seen before. Could not get x-ray that day as I did not see the doctor till 4.40pm. Go again on the 29th may to get x-ray and hopefully my own consultant. Physio don't want to see me again as they said I was doing really well. Just do the exercises at home they said which I do 3/4 times a day which are the excercise. Thank you kathy.x
That's wonderful! Sounds like you're doing it all right! I'm having to go back to using a walker at times and crutches because I've fallen a few times now since my 2nd FKR on just the left leg. Now my knees are loose. So probably.... here I go again.
Thank you kathy it's been hard really I'm still on a walking stick but I don't use it inside the house just outside. I did nearly falll twice when I was in my crutches don't know what happened you will get there in the end.x
