a very quick update

As I approach the one year mark on my second partial knee replacement, I have to say I couldn't be happier. I can now get onto my hands and knees -  (Carefully and gently!!) And that facilitates my yoga practice. It is wonderful to once again do Cat/Dog and Lunges.

I find that the medial replacement is much more forgiving in this area.

I can do just about everything I want to. The only area that is not quite where I want it to be is carrying anything...even as little as 5 pounds...up or down stairs. And sitting for very long in a chair is still the biggest challenge! I can do it, but my knees will definitely not be happy the next day.

I promise a more complete update as I approach 1 year on my second knee..

  1. Hi there, this is a nice sharing. As I know Unloader knee bracing may be is another good solution for knee paint. Recent trends declare that the usage of Unloader knee bracing in conjunction with Injectable treatments such as Hyaluronic Acidity (HLA) or even Platelet abundant plasma (PrP) offer you the next step frontward with alleviating the actual suffering connected with OA.

  2. I'll need to go back through and read your whole knee surgery experience! I'm glad that you're able to do a lot more than you were before, especially when it comes to getting down on your hands and knees. I've never experienced knee pain before, but I know what it's like to have trouble getting down or back up again. I hope the knee continues getting better! http://noyeskneeinstitute.com/makoplasty

  4. A is surgery to replace only one part of a damaged knee. It can replace either the inside (medial) part, the outside (lateral) part, or the kneecap part of the knee.
    During partial knee replacement, the orthopedic surgeon makes a small incision to gain access to the affected compartment of the knee. He or she gently moves supporting structures of the knee out of the way and removes damaged cartilage and bone tissue from the surfaces of the tibia and the femur in the arthritic area.

  15. Nice article!!! The main reason for replacing any arthritic joint with an artificial joint is to stop the bones from rubbing against each other. This rubbing causes pain. Replacing the painful and arthritic joint with an artificial joint gives the joint a new surface, which moves smoothly and without causing pain.
