Tibia fracture
Tibia fracture surgery is done 2 months before. As per the doctor advice I am doing exercise like knee bending, ankle pumping, lifting leg up and down. Putting 2 kg weight on my ankle and lifting the leg.
Doctor said I can start walking after completion of 3 month bed rest. Completed 2 month bed rest. 1 more month of bed rest is pending
Can I do any other free exercises like rotating leg, dragging the leg on the ground frontward and backwards.
What other exercise I can do for tibia fracture.
