Hello friends,
it has been 9 months now after I had a TKR and over all I am very happy with the outcome. Able to do stairs, going for nice long walks without pain, most important to me of cause is being able to dance again. The clicking noise is driving me up the wall, but according to my surgeon it eventually will go away. Now, for the last couple of weeks, every once in a while, my knee makes this awful grinding/crunching sound when standing up after sitting. It's not painful and I have no swelling either. I have days when I get out of bed and don't even thing about my knee, everything feels super and days when I still feel the tightness around the knee or the ankle. Has any of you experienced this crunching in the knee, any advise would be great. My 8 months checkup went well, surgeon said I am doing really good.
