Hello,

As I think history isn't directing towards the elbow, because is in between the hand and the shoulder. I think you mean to speak about the knee here.

So implant will not be in the knee but the bone above or the bone below.

If she is not able to walk for now I will advice to take an X-ray and see if the implant is in position is one.

Next, do some simple exercises like static Quadriceps and static hamstring so the strength in the muscles comes back.

Start slow walking with the help of Walker and later without Walker. She should do well. You can take help of a physiotherapist if needed.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
