Hi guys
I am new to this forum,was looking for some advise.
My mother underwent bilateral TKR on the 19th Oct. While she has been progressing well in PT, she is complaining of constant stiffness in her right knee. This is also causing a limp when she walks. When we met our surgeon recently for a follow up, he asked us to see him again after 6 weeks and expressed the possibile requirement of an MUA.
This has really scared us. While our PT is very confident that this is not required and that some stiffness is very normal at this stage, the surgeon seems to think otherwise.
Since I see that a lot of you here have had experience in this surgery, seeking your support to understand of stiffness is normal post TKR.
Would really appreciate your guidance
