I know knee injuries all too well and I have a full titanium knee to show for it. Yes, I do use medical marijuana, but that is for chronic pain, not injury pain, two different creatures. Respect the injury, listen to the pain, and rest, you hurt yourself, give it time, and it can take a looooong time also! This is what you get when they replace a knee...
I had to quote her as far as showing a negative aspect of using bud for pain relief from such an incision. Pain is there to remind you to not to strain it.

Btw, that looks like that hurts. I mean I was cut down straight down the torso, but I think I'd rather do that again, than ever get stapled at the knee!
