    PKR QdogPa recovery

    Standing makes my knee stiffen up worse than walking.

    PKR QdogPa recovery

    Speaking of the foot over foot going downstairs. If I turn sideways and try it that helps and I can do it slowly.

    Yes we do. I called the clinic today and canceled my appointment. They are seeing patients but better to be safe.

    Thankyou Jaycey Sorry I was looking for my original thread and couldn’t find it. I do ice it but haven’t been as much as before I think maybe I haven’t been as diligent as I should. I will try that a hope it helps. Thanks for the reminder!!

    I had my surgery 11 weeks ago. It’s a slow go but I’m getting around ok. Still feels tight and gets sore quickly. My concern is in the back of the knee. In the soft tissue is where I’m having pain. Does anyone else have that? Not sure if it’s important enough to go into the clinic on Friday. I...

    PKR QdogPa recovery

    @Qdogpa I am pretty close to where you’re at. Surgery was Jan 28. I have aches as well. Mine is mostly behind my knee in the soft tissue. Trying to get out for walks but this social isolation is so hard and is getting me down. Praying for this whole virus thing to be over with soon. Guess I’m...

    TKR Total Left Knee Replacement

    @flacie1 I too have itching and find that if the creams don’t help I will take a cold damp cloth and lay it over my knee. It helps a bit.

    Oh thanks everyone. It makes me feel a whole lot better knowing it’s normal. I go see my surgeon again on Friday so there shouldn’t be any surprises then. My knee is also feeling itchy which I think is a sign of healing as well.

    I am now at 6 weeks post op today. I’m walking pretty good but if I stand too long it gets very stiff and sore so I have to raise and ice it. My scar is healing up nicely but my knee is still red and hot especially the lower part. Is anyone else experiencing this?

    I am at 4 1/2 weeks right now too. I have an exercise bike but haven’t been able to master a full cycle. My knee is still stiff but the pain is much more manageable. I take Tylenol maybe twice a day plus Celebrex. I’m walking more and actually made dinner tonight! Yay! Still icing and raising my...
