TKR Knee replacement post op issues

[Pnwgal]

I’m doing pretty good, but not nearly as social as you, lol! My big issue is that my knee doesn’t want to bend and it’s making me crazy!

Oh I’m having the same issue with bending and it’s driving me crazy as well!! Ugh. I’m not usually this social either, lol.

I am going into my fourth week and once I started reading all these posts about ROm I decided to follow the advise on this forum....I have not stretched, but I do walk. If it hurts I ice and elevate....I am not worrying anymore....it still hurts really bad but if is not that swollen I notice it is easier to do some daily activities...I am blessed to have this forum as my support system

You really should be careful not to overdo too often. It’s going to happen occasionally, but you’re not doing yourself any favors overdoing too often. You could end up setting your recovery back, which will make the whole recovery longer.

I’ll tell you mine....not so much as over doing something but not doing something. I was a week or so post op, had to go to the bathroom very badly. Forgot to kick out my operative leg. I did my own MUA minus the anesthesia part lol
