Hi Molly, I had my TKR just after you (17 Jan 18). Do you think you might be walking too much ? I make a point of walking about 3/4 mile every other day & found for me this is much better. I tried this distance every day for 5 days, I was in a lot of discomfort & couldn't even make the distance on day five. With exercises as well it was too much for me. My PTsays ' listen to your knee ', so now that's what I do. I work three mornings a week & do a lot of walking in my job, so on those days I don't go for my walk. I just go at my own pace now, if it takes a bit longer to get back to normal, then so be it, better than being in pain. I wish you well.
