Thanks for your posting, I am almost 19 weeks post tkr and up until this past month, I too had been having mouth ulcers. Started about 5 weeks after op and I found it hard to get rid of them. Never occurred to me about them being related to the op.
I have been doing ok, off meds and managed without walking aid after about 10 wks and managed the supermarkets fine. This was a bonus to me as prior to my op I had used a mobility scooter for the past 4 yrs. My main problem at the moment is that when I bend my knee past a certain point, I get a sharp stabbing pain to the left of my knee. It doesn't bother me when I walk or am I in pain at any time, only when I bend my knee past a certain point. Does anyone else experience this and how long does it last?
