Hi I am new to this site and must say how helpful it has been. It's good to know that there are others out there who are in the same situation.I had TKR on Feb .6th and have been doing well. I am now 11 weeks post TKR and am having a bit of a set back. I have painful clicking at the back outside of the knee which feels like something catching like a tendon or something. It is preventing me getting the bend which I was getting and is preventing me from walking too far. Last week on week 10 I walked comfortably ( using walking stick)for 4 km but today I found it difficult to walk 400m.
I go to the gym and cycle 3 times a week for 10 to 12 minutes and do PT exercises at home. I live in UK and we don't seem to get as much post op. physio as you do in America.
I am having my other Knee replaced in June so am keen to get this first one sorted out. I had such a good start that I am very disappointed in this setback.
Does anyone else have this problem? I don't get to see my surgeon for another couple of weeks.
