I'm 4 months post operation using the patellar graft. While it is definitely getting better, it still hurts and gets really stiff. I tried to go for a run yesterday and that didn't work out very well for me. Am I being too impatient?

    6-8 months is average to just get some decent movement. What's your PT routine?

    I have been going every week, but I only have one session left with my PT. still doing a lot of stretchin, strengthening, light jogging and plyometrics.
