My Experience So Far- External Monolateral - Dr Mitkovic

Quote from: Blackhawk on May 30, 2015, 05:22:32 PMI agree with this^  Its not just a simple bump that you have to live with.  I would be surprised if this won't affect your walking.  I would try to get this fixed before consolidation.

i thought the same thing.. but after speaking to 2 doctors they told me if my knee joint can be completely straightened than it wont effect my walking.. im going to have my doctor visit me on monday or tuesday at which point i may have him push it back in a little it to have some piece of mind..

Speaking to another doctor on this site

on this site, oh okay you said 'im going to have my doctor visit me' which implies in person.

at what point during lengthening did this occur?

If this does occur, can you still lengthen?

Edit Post

Varies from patient to patient.. Mine began at about 2.5 to 3cm..

Oh jeez, so this is a common occurrence?

well anyway I have stairs in my home so I would like to know what my mobility will be like when I go home during consolidation, will i be able to walk up a flight of stairs, or will i have to remain downstairs for about 2 months at which point I will be able to walk a little better and so go upstairs.

getting uop and downstairs is extremely dangerous.. youd have to sit down and work your way up or down.. its doable but it would be very annoying
