I found a couple of wraps of cling film over the dressing kept my leg dry in the shower.
Don't spend a lot on icing. A packet of frozen veg will work.
Do the exercises however bad a day you are having painwise.
Gets easier after 2-3 weeks.
Do the exercises in both legs.
I concentrated on the bad leg, and the good leg finished up weaker.
Walk, walk, and more walk, and concentrate on not developing a limp.
Not pleasent early on, but the more you put into the recovery exercises, the more you get out of the replacement.
The movement you have after about 7 weeks, is about what you will always have.
Good luck.
MTC.
