Hello, Just found this Forum. I had my first TKR 1/17/24 on right knee. I am currently been doing PT three times a week but next week will start twice a week for at least next 3 weeks. This is the hardest thing I have ever done and unfortunately I did take a fall this week (tripped over furniture) - Tues. Called on call ortho nurse who asked if weight bearing okay and any new pain unexpected pain. I said no and have gone to pt Wed and Fri. No problems doing the pt, I have a very small light bruise at the lower bottom part of the surgical knee about the size between a dime and a quarter. As I am 7 weeks out I still have swelling around the knee. After reading some post here of history of falls feel like I probably just made my knee a bit more angry for a few weeks. I am looking forward to gleaning from all you post TKRs.
