Recovering from knee surgery can be challenging, but strengthening the vastus medialis oblique (VMO)—a key part of the quadriceps—can enhance stability and reduce recovery time.

The VMO plays a crucial role in patellar tracking and knee joint protection, making its strength essential post-operation. Effective exercises like quad sets, straight leg raises, and terminal knee extensions can aid recovery and improve patella alignment, reducing pain and instability. It is recommended to perform these exercises under a physiotherapist's guidance to ensure form and prevent overstrain. Incorporate VMO strengthening into a comprehensive rehabilitation programme for better mobility and function. Begin with guidance, focus on form, and integrate with functional movements for optimal results. Work with healthcare professionals to tailor a personalised recovery plan that supports an efficient and safe return to daily activities.
