Knee replacement

Posted , 8 users are following.

hi I was wondering if anybody else is still having pain in the knee after 13 wks, I can walk but not too far and when I stand up it takes me a couple of minutes to get moving cos I get this sharp pain in my knee ,I've had an X-ray and all is fine but standing up and walking straight away is a no no .  Is there anyone on here having similar discomforts.

    Hi I am now 5 months post tkr and still having pain now and then but only really when putting my full weight on it ie walking I also get very stiff and my leg gets really heavy if I walk too far. Also found out now that my other knee needs to be done so it's a balancing act as to how I put my weight on each leg. Hope you get sorted soon xx jo
