It's a thing

Following up on yesterday’s post about cautious recovery optimism, I saw the surgeon for my two-month checkup. He concurs with my physical therapist that the IT band is the culprit. Evidently, when they replace your knee, they may or may not also realign things that were out of whack because your leg components weren’t working properly as your cartilage disappeared. So IT band revenge is a thing.

I’m to keep up with the exercises, add anti-inflammatories to the acetaminophen I’m taking and check in with him again in a couple of months.

Yay?
