Hello,
I have really enjoyed this forum! I had my left TKR on March 6th and had nightmare PT experiences. My scarring is bad so they tried cupping until I was in tears. Switched PT’s and ended up having hip pain from their exercises. Ended up dropping PT after reading this forum. After 6 months, I have a spot that clicks and things feel very tight and sore yet. I am scheduled to have my right knee replaced in November since it is bone on bone and I have reached my out of pocket max on insurance so it would cost me nothing. That knee doesn’t hurt as much as my replaced knee so I am scared that I might be rushing due to the money savings involved. Stairs are very hard since I don’t have stairs at home, and I can’t stand kneeling on that knee due to the scar.
Would you suggest planning on the surgery or hold off?
