I spent 3+ years in a hospital bed with a plaster from my toes up to my hip. The only excersise I can remember was having a boot put on my good leg and I would have to keep straitening my leg and bending at the knee to get some muscle tone into the good leg. My left leg ended up 2+ inches shorter and was badly withered which is the same to day.

My doctor advised that exercise helps in reducing multiplication of the bacteria and that when one does not exercise the bacteria gets ample room for multiplying.

Exercise...no...physical therapy....definitely.

I have found, in my case, swimming is best for me due to the fact there is no weight being placed on the bones affected.
