Hi
I've developed an odd pain in my knee.

So I had my TKR 2 weeks ago Im 36 and usually active. I am in so much pain after the op but I'm worried with how little I can move my knee. I have some movement in it but not a lot and it just won't go straight. I'm doing my exercises 3 times a day but seeing little to no improvement. How little...
