I currently have a broken leg and accidentally breaking my arm from a fall now is my worst fear. I’m so sorry this happened to you.
I ordered this wedge pillow set and this elevation pillow on Amazon for my broken leg.
I also grabbed an overbed table on wheels since I work from home, along with a waterproof cast cover and a bath chair for showers.
It’s amazing what I found just by entering in “broken leg accessories” on my Amazon app while in the hospital. Feel better soon and hope this helps!
Hi-five!! Yes edibles has been my go-to! Have to take 2-3 gummies to knock myself out so I’m just melting into the bed and don’t care what position I’m in haha It’s also legal here. Are you in Cali too?
I actually cleared the wedge pillow through my surgeon.

He said it’s perfectly fine. I can reach almost 0 extension with those exercises you suggested, and having a rolled towel under my ankles. I’m just concerned i might get to negatives, as I heard that’s bad for the meniscus, so I’m not pushing myself as hard for it as during prehab. Thanks for the concern and suggestions though! Very helpful and encouraging!
My first PT session is today. Luna physical therapy FTW! I don’t have to leave my house as they come direct to you. The most awesome thing is most therapists are already on this network as they pay pretty well and are accepted by most insurance companies.
