4 weeks post op on a open wedge femoral osteotomy. i am not bending good rom is only a 55 but dr got 65 after giving me a shot in my knee. problem im having is my quad is very sleepy and we tried e-stym 2 times and no response, i did have a femoral block, any input?

hi im not doing that great im a little over 5 weeks post op. bad rom only a 70. cant straighten all the way. my quads still arent working. i talked to my os today and he said he may have to release my patella because its stuck

He had talked about both procedures. Mua and latetal release. Knee cap is stuck not moving. Only pain im having is in my knee cap. And its numb

yes the reason he wants to release my patella is because my patella is stuck and wont move at all. that may be why i cant bend my knee at all. he said there is probaly some scar tissue in the preventing it. theis is my 3rd surgery in one yr. long story short i had surgery last years from a different dr. he really messed my knee up. i went in for a meniscus tear, apparently the dr never fixed it. so i went and met my dr i have now he scoped me in jan fixed my meniscus which was also discoid, then few months later my valgus got bad. so we did a open wedge femoral osteotomy 5 weeks ago. im healing real good. minimal pain. only pain i feel is in my knee cap.
