No Pain, No Gain

That is what they say. No pain, no gain when it comes to exercising sore joints. Just having a knee revision has given me a huge swollen knee and ankle and foot too. They tell me it can take weeks before the foot and ankle swelling go down but it can take as long as a year to get rid of the knee swelling.

I don't know how they expect you to bend your knee to a normal position when it is the size of a large cantelope. It is hard enough to get up and walk after sitting for just a short while. Friday they will work me over again. I've got weeks of this to look forward to.
