    TKR 12 days in

    No pain at all when sat still. Pain if I bend it over 90 degrees and then pain in the knee cap when I straighten again. Still swollen and constantly warm although no infection and still stiff and tight band.

    Hi Under the MUA the Doc got 110 and zero extension but slowly seemed to loose it. Arthroscopy cleared out "loads of scar tissue" Docs words and seemed great for about 5 days then slowly back to normal again. Physio seems to think I just need to keep going with the exercises and he believes I...

    Hi I posted back in March 2020 to say I had a left TKR and recieved some great advice. Unfortunately 2 weeks later the dreaded COVID lock downs happened, anyway, only did my own PT and the replacement didn't work, became loose and rattled. I then went private through work and had a revision in...

    Hi. Feels much stronger than before. After 6 weeks already have 90+ ROM. Only had 90 2 years after 1st op. Pain is also less which is why I think I'm getting ahead of myself and doing to much.

    Hi. Originally had LTKR in March 2020. Unfortunately lockdown hit and no physio however always felt something wasn't right. 2 1/2 years later with ROM of only 90, plenty of clunking and the knee constantly swollen I went private through work and the Xray/ MRI scan proved I was right. Had a...

    Tks. I take a 20 min walk each day and a few exercises. Not much, few leg raises and ankle slids. Rest of the day I'm sat on settle with leg elevated as working from home. Think most of my problems are the fact I cant straighten the leg. I can get a fist under my knee when sat straight legged on...

    Hi. I'm now 12 days post op on a tkr of my left knee. I have a ROM of 80% which I didn't think was great considering when I left hospital 8 days ago it was 75%. Having said that I walk, albeit slowly, with 2 sticks, pretty good and can weight bare. Still feels very tight and still swollen. Ice...
