Recover After Manipulation Under Anesthesia with PTA Candice Cawood The Bee's Knees

Recover After Manipulation Under Anesthesia with PTA Candice Cawood

by PJ Ewing (The Bee's Knees Podcast)













On the Bees Knees Podcast, I discuss how to recover after the knee MUA with Candice Cawood, a seasoned Physical Therapist Assistant. We cover traditional PT in a clinic, and the alternative (oftentimes the better answer). We discuss pain management and mobility post-procedure.













The Key Principles



*

Understand the surgeon's expectations



*

Clear the decks - this is your job for 2-3 weeks



*

Evaluate your performance in PT after one week



*

Adjust the course if you are not meeting expectations



*

Change from "no pain no gain" to "frequency not force" by 14 days post-surgery if needed
