Lying In Bed<br />

Keep a pillow between your legs when lying on your back.<br />

Try to keep the operated leg positioned in bed so the kneecap<br />

and toes are pointing toward the ceiling. Try not to let your<br />

kneecaps roll inward or outward. A blanket or towel-roll on<br />

the outside of your leg may help you maintain this position.
