    MUA Poor Flexion - Does age matter?<

    @Josephine It is definitely NOT across the front of my knee....Rather it is behind the knee like I specified in the diagram as well as slightly lower than the back of knee and towards the outer edge. I honestly think it has something to do with IT band....its like a rubber band getting stuck...

    @Josephine the sharp pain that feels as if there is a rubber band getting stuck on something would be DLB 4-LB3 as well as ELB4-LB3 The occasional cramping/soreness would be E and F LB4-LB3

    @Josephine Im assuming the LB is the outer part of knee as opposed to inner. In which case the sharp pain that feels as if there is a rubber band getting stuck on something would be ROW D: LB 4-LB3 as well as ROW E: LB4-LB3 The occasional cramping/soreness would be ROW E-F: LB4-LB3

    @Josephine I have previously answered these questions months ago when I first had surgery. My only concern now seems to be the occasional stabbing pain which is on the side of the knee but a little further down. I was thinking it might be related to the IT band? Thats really what I wanted to...

    @DIYSteve Thanks soooo much!!! I'm about four months out so I guess I have a little ways to go :). I was just nervous that maybe I did something wrong and damaged it. But it probably is just adjusting to the new knee. Thats exactly what it feels like, that it's getting stuck on something...

    @Kiwigirl62 I think so too. I've been doing it a little on myself as well, same places. I don't know why the calves and hamstrings feel so tight but definitely helps to massage them. @Larryhg3 My PT (when I did go to them) would only do it for about five minutes and then get to the aggressive...

    @traceys Yes!!!! My brother did a great massage on my leg the first week after my surgery (he's a licensed massage therapist, but lives an hour and a half away). It hurt like hell but I really think it moved the fluid out and I felt so good after, although there were certain points (like...
