I woke up in a lot of pain on the second day, because I didn't take pain medication before I went to bed and the nerve block had worn off. I took a full dose of pain medication as soon as I woke up. I was still pretty much helpless on the second day. i couldn't get up or down without help, but every 30-45 minutes, I needed to get up and walk around my pool table (with a walker). I also iced frequently, 30 minutes at a time.
The physical therapist came to the house and answered all of our questions. He also gave me a couple of exercises to do.
I kept down all of my food, but day 2 was pretty difficult.
