I am 1 week post op. And I can't bend my knee just straight

I am 1 week post op. And I can’t bend my knee just straight. Super stiff and I feel that the stitches will break if I force to bend. Any suggestion? Thanks guys

no worries… It will come back over time. I’m 12 weeks PO and I now have a complex bend and extension. Just continue stretching as best you can and one day you’ll be shocked at your bend.

As my ortho said to me: ah do you not realize I drilled holes in your bones then screwed a new ligament into that bone😂 so I too had to slow my roll! I started working on bending on the 5th day. Yes it feels like it’s ripping. Slowly slowly it comes. Today is 3 weeks PO for me and I juts realized that feeling is gone from my quads. And it may been last week so it’s coMing for you.
