It's two weeks though isn't it?
I know every surgeon has their own approach. Dr Erasmus (my mom's one and he had folks flocking to him from all over the planet for knee work) ad everyone walkinig normally on the 2nd day and stiffness was nto allowed to develop wit te ourly exercise to keep tongs moving as he put it . I suspect toug tatr is surgical tecnique was also a factor n te super recoveres for which he was known.
There's "enough" and then there's the WAY it is done - namely hourly (while awake), to keep circulation going, and not lettiing it stagnate and cause edema in the first place.
It is all relative - for each surgeon?
My own knee surgery was more like the person you speak of, but I had no impetus to move asap and often and I had a "regular" knee surgeon:-)
I used physiotherapy to good effect for the little muscles at the sides of te knee. (Requires curved motion exercises, sitting on a table, with increasing resistance on the curves, inward and outward curves wth ankles locked UP, 5 mins a day for a week. AFter that there is 100% flexiblity. It is another Dutch development, works like magic.)
Sounds right remedy then, yes:-)
