I am at 2 months now post TKR. I am wondering as a rule how long that tight band feeling lasts over your knee? Also I have trouble with getting comfortable sleeping. I love to sleep on my side & when I do I use pillows between the legs but that only lasts for maybe 10 minutes if that. I get so tired of sleeping on my back. I do so much tossing around to get comfortable.When it comes to elevating the knee do any of you use pillows under the back of your knee? That is the only kind of relieve I can get when in a bed. I can't wait to be rid of this tight band feeling! I no longer use the hydrocodone medication as I developed alittle heartburn & figured maybe that or coated bayer aspirin was maybe causing that. Any replys would be welcomed. Thank you.
