Question

6 weeks post ACL surgery and my physiotherapist keeps forcefully bending my knee during home visits, causing intense pain. He increases the bend every day with more pressure and also compresses my knee while elevating my leg from the ankle. Is this normal or is he being too aggressive with the recovery process?

Pain from physio should be tolerable; forceful passive bending early on may harm—consider a second opinion.

Question

It's been 4 months and 25 days since my distal femur comminuted fracture surgery, which I heard is one of the most complicated cases. My knee still won't bend properly and I'm worried - is the fixation not healing right anatomically? Could this mean I might need another surgery or is there another reason for my limited movement?
