Example of Rehabilitation Protocol Following Microfracture Surgery
The following is an example of what to expect in terms of time frame and the different phases of rehab following micro fracture surgery. The most important thing in the early stages especially is the protection of the surgical site. This means non weight bearing for a period of time as determined by your surgeon. Additionally, following the instructions of your physical therapist and adhering to your home exercise program will allow you to progress at a more rapid rate and insure full functional return.
