    Looking at TKR in both knees

    Back again after a few years...had right hip replaced 6 years ago and doing great. No knees are the problem....my question is can I go back to work in 4 weeks. My job is behind a desk talking on a phone all day.... TIA

    TKR Knee bending

    Thank you. Her surgery was October 4th. She has a login but doesn't use it much. But I will let her know. It was her right knee. I told her about this forum because I used it with my THR 4 years ago.

    TKR Knee bending

    My wife had TKR 5 weeks ago and can bend her knee 97 degrees on her own...the therapist said it should be 105 degrees by now and the Dr would not be happy. Is 97 degrees good at this point or not? Thank you.

    Over weight and surgery worries

    I lost over 50 pounds before surgery and I know your struggles. Congratulations on your weight loss. I also had worries about surgery and dislocation and mobility problems after surgery because I'm 53 years old and felt I was young to have hip replacement. Now I'm 8 weeks post op and my...
