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?

With grade 1 tears in the ACL and MCL, along with meniscus sprains, non-surgical treatment is often the first approach, including bracing, physical therapy, and gradual return to activity. Surgery might be considered if conservative treatments fail to restore stability or if there's significant ongoing pain or instability. The ACL tear, in particular, may require surgery if it's a significant tear or if you're an athlete. Recovery typically takes several months, with ACL injuries often taking 6 months or longer for full recovery, and MCL injuries healing faster

I've been having lower back pain when standing, walking, or bending. My doctor recommended wearing a back belt and avoiding bending, but said surgery might be needed if it continues. Does this sound like the right approach or are there other options I should consider? The pain's been persistent and I'm worried about it getting worse.
