These legs have been through a lot in the last 5 months...well it will be 5 months in 2 more days. They are pretty ugly, but really not bad for what they went through. I have scars from the emergency brake, the dashboard, and many incisisons for rods, plates, screws, and pins...but they're still working and for that I am sooo, sooo blessed! The black Xs are to mark a couple of the breaks for my bone stimulator. My PT has taped up my knees to give extra support. As he explained it, they hurt because the muscles in my quads come back at different times, so the outside ones are stronger right now and pulling my kneecaps. It's amazing how much the tape helps. The only downside, I'm allergic to adhesives. So far I've been lucky with this tape though...just lots of itching, but no breakouts.
