Knee Scars - Post Your Badges of Honor Here! NO CHIT-CHAT please

[PeterinMontreal]

Here is my left knee, 2 days after TKR. I'll take another picture today as this is the last day with a bandage (I'm now 13 days post-op. One interesting thing to note is that my surgeon does not use staples...he sews a series of internal stitches and then on the ends, two more traditional stitches that are used to pull the entire wound together. It's supposed to leave "less scarring"...lol. Anyway, I think I've earned a spot in the club, what do you think? TRKR coming in January.

Here is my knee after 1 month - taken yesterday, November 20, 2014
