I recently had distal patellofemoral realignment surgery on March 28, 2011, right now I'm on my fifth day post op but still am in a lot of pain. When I get out of bed and onto my crutches my knee that was operated on gets this intense pain on each side of the knee. This really sucks because before this I was a really active person. But anyways I was wondering if anyone has gone through this before and could give any advice. By the way I'm just under 21 years old and hope I can make a really decent recovery. Any information would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks, Brandon
