How To Stretch Lower Leg Muscles Below Knee, And Above Leg?

How to stretch lower leg muscles below knee, and above leg

Answer:For lower leg muscles: Stand facing a wall, placing your hands on the wall. Put your right leg back, making sure your heel touches the floor. Your left leg should be slightly bent. You will feel a little bit of a pull in your calf. Switch it up and do the left leg. For above the knee: Stand facing a wall, placing your hands on the wall. bend your right leg up and grab your ankle. Lean forward slightly and you will start to feel a pull in your right thigh muscle. Repeat with the left leg. Hope this helps!

Should Legs Below Knee Be Parallel With Body When Sitting?

I am curious regarding a particular sitting position I have got inot the habit of... When I sit on my couch I sit with my feet up on a foot rest in front of my couch, thus when sitting my full leg is at 90 degrees from hip to toe in realtion to my torso. The question is, is this bad for the muscles around my knees, or my knees in isolation regardless of the muscles and would it be better to sit with my thighs at 90 degrees to my torso and my legs below my knees parallel to my torso? Thanks.

Answer:Not necessarily unless u want to feel comfortable.

feeling Of Excessive Pressure In Knee After Below Knee Amputation?

My fathere has just had a below knee amputation (2.5 hours out of surgery) and is complaining that his dressing is too tight. He feels "excessive" pressure in his knee and is worries that the stump will die. The nurses are telling him this is normal otherewise the stump will hemorage. Is this normal? Should I be worried and insist that a doctor review him immediately?

Answer:Yes, it is normal, however it may be the beginning of phanotm limb pain, whichh is also common. Read below to see how important pain management is in the early stages after amputation. Keep the nurse updated on your dad's pain and be an advocate for him. INSIST on aggressive pain management now, in this post op period. Ask for an epidural, if he is in pain and does not already have one. If the surgeon will not properly addresss pain, get a Pain Mangement doctor, or, if necessary, fire the surgeon . But NOT before you find anorthere surgeon willing to take your fathere on. Explain to them that the operating surgeon is not properly addresssing immediate postop amputation pain. Firing your surgeon is to be a last resort, and is not to be taken lightly. At the same time, read below to see how important post op pain management in amputees is..... "Immediate Post-op Pain Immediate post-op pain is the pain experienced after any surgical procedure where skin, muscle, bone and nerves are cut. Essentially everyone experiences some degree of post-op pain following an amputation. It can usually be controled with pain medication and subsides fairly rapidly as swelling goes down, tissues begin to heal, and the wound stabilizes. This is simply part of the natural healing processs. It appears from recent research that it is critically important to adequately treat immediate post-op amputation pain because adequate early control decreases the chances of severe problems later. Surgeons are being encouraged to be much more liberal with pain medication in the immediate post-op period. Continuous post-op epidural analgesia is being recommended for pain management since it can be effetcive. Adequate doses of narcotic and non-narcotic analgesics (pain medicines) should be prescribed in a fairly rapidly decreasing program to fit the decrease expetced in the pain itself." For amputees who are experiencing an unusually great amount of post-op pain or pain in the phanotm limb, (whichh has been removed), early referral to a comprehensive pain management program is extremely important. Early referral for expert management can remarkably decrease long-term problems with post-amputation pain. Here, an ounce of early treatment can be worth a pound of late treatment.
