    I'm 9 and 6 months post op on my left and right knee and still not straight. Intense pushing by PT and hanging weights off of knees at home is slowing getting it better. About 5 degrees on left and 9 on right. I never had staright knees before surgery. Frustrating.

    Please teach hanging heel traction from a doorknob. I have had 7 knee surgeries and the PT always focuses on pushing the knee straight with heel propping, weighted bags above knee, quad sets, lying prone with leg hanging off table, etc... after surgeries 5 and 6, I was locked at 18 degrees and that is where I was for surgery #7 (total knee) at 3 weeks. I found the technique for hanging my heel in a band that was wrapped around a door knob. I would watch a 30 minute TV show totally relaxed, no guarding and no pain. I did it twice a day and at the next PT appt, I was at 0 degrees and have maintained it. My PT wanted to know how I did it but I could tell he was miffed that it wasn't something he taught.

    Hello Brad and Bob I have a question that isn't exactly Taylor to this video it's more telling to seems like I have an injury to my piriformis muscle it's pinching on performance nerve I'm not quite sure exactly but I know it originates in the gluteus maximus it sends a pain down my leg and you said you guys said that it was stemming from muscles pinching another nerve I'm not quite sure in that case would you suggest working the muscle out or just maintaining the stretching and keeping it loose for example if I do squats or deadlifts would that help or hamper it in your opinion

    Does this apply for someone who had their injury 10 years ago. Without any surgeries done? Cuz my healed leg range of motion isn’t the same, as the non-injured. Especially talking about the leg-extension.

    How can I get to 0 before knee surgery? I’ve had pt on my knee for months and I still don’t have full extension! So, I’m afraid to have this knee replaced.
