Recently, my spouse had a knee replacement operation. The physio came early the following week. When they were doing the exercises, they were doing one where you lie on the bed and you pull your leg up so your foot comes up to the buttocks. My spouse did so, as far as they could, and then I recall the physio pushed it right in and my spouse screamed out in pain.
I am concerned that the physio went too far when my spouse had only just gotten home from the hospital. My spouse has been in a lot of pain since then, the whole afternoon and the next day, and ever since then. So, they haven’t been able to do their exercises.
