Did my Tibial plateau damage done whilst skiing, (type two shatzcker i'm told.) accident was on 6th March with the operation on 18th March. That took 4 1/2 hours, not sure if thats a long time ? and included bone graft.
Have been perplexed at the lack of pain throughout though !! when i broke the knee i have had more pain from stubbing a toe!, after that absoloutly nothing!! is this normal ? i can feel everything so no nerve damage.
Anyway..two weeks with pot on then stitches out, pot on again for two more weeks, which comes off tomorrow( 17th April 2013 ) and then knee brace, looking forward to being able to bend my knee again.

Is there a lot of pain when moving the knee or is it just difficult do to muscle loss ? and is there a rule of thumb when i should then be putting pressure on the foot ?
