Hi. Please continue the exercises as advised by your operating surgeon. I would suggest you a few things to improve on. Firstly find a Physiotherapist of repute and follow what he says. Sometimes Acupressure or acupuncture can help a lot. I think both the services will be definitely available in Chennai. wish you all the best . And on the top of all, you need to be determined to get the results.
