Day 1: 3 days post op. Changed ace wrap. Saw swelling on leg (Enormous amount of swelling). Ice and elevation for treatment. Ankle pumps, hip sets, quad sets for mobility exercise. (Quad sets struggled). Had first 2 small bowel movements since surgery. Pain was controllable. Being uncomfortable will take some time to adjust to. No class. Ankle pumps, quad sets, hip sets before bed (felt better about the quad sets than earlier in day). No narcotic pain meds today. Standing on crutches stationary for more than 30 seconds is very uncomfortable.
