I try to do some upper body workout, but still while sitting with one leg up. I am falling apart from lying on the same position all day and twisting in order to use my laptop.
I massage my leg with gel for swellings, and with oil to stimulate some blood circulation.I eat all the foods rich in minerals and vitamins needed for bone growth.I have a boot, I keep my leg elevated most of the day, and I use crutches to get around the house.These numb sport border very painful spots, a very strange and unnatural feeling. I have several completely numb spots on my leg, around the fracture and incision points.The puncture point is still bleeding from time to time and painful. The incisions around my knee are closed up and clean, still sore, and the incision around the puncture are still bloody and very painful.The muscles on the entire leg atrophied and it is so weak, I have to move it with my arms.The pain is better, but still hurts at the point of fracture and in the knee.My current situation (7 weeks after surgery): I am now almost 7 weeks into this, and no PT has been prescribed to me yet, they said I wasn’t ready. They basically took an X Ray, and both times there was no bone growth, so they just sent me home and told me to elevate and ice the leg, and come back in a month. Since the surgery, I saw an orthopedic PA at Kaiser only 2 times, once a week after the surgery, and once a month later. We went back to Bay Area, to my Kaiser Permanente insurance. I was released from the hospital the next day. They explained the procedure as routine with 100% recovery. They made an incision above my knee and inserted the rod through the knee. I had an emergency surgery that evening in South Lake Tahoe, they installed a 315mm titanium rod in my tibia and fastened it with 3 screws. They broke inside my boot, close to my ankle. I had a ski accident on Feb 25th 2018 that resulted in compound fracture of tibia and fibula.
