Diagnosed fractured tibial plataeu, 6 weeks cast. after the cast removed, i cant bed or straighten my knee. is it normal? i can bend only 90. and i can almost straighten it. feels like my calf is tight. please help. thanks?

I'm not surprised at the limitation of motion by the knee joint, but one worries about the presence of.phlebitis when calf pain swelling or tenderness follows a period of.reduced mobilization and prolonged cast wearing. Get checked by your MD who would probably order a leg ultrasound depending upon physical findings. Your knee joint will improve with appropriate physical therapy when approved byMD
