TKR 14 months on - new pain
Posted , 6 users are following.
I had a TKR on right knee just over a year ago and suddenly from November onwards I started to get a pain inside the left hand side of the knee which has steadily got worse since then. I can straighten and bend with no problem but sometimes if I move certain ways it hurts and when I turn over in bed it can hurt. Been to consultant and the x rays are fine, he is sending me for a bone scan but not sure what that will find out. I dont think it is the prothesis itself but something else going on. It has got tighter too. Any ideas welcome, up until this pain started my knee has been great but now seems to be going downhill. Thanks

Best thing is to put an ice pack on it a few times a day! Put Volterol gel on it regularly! It takes a very long time ( can do) to calm down!
I've had in the past Bursitis near my hips and had cortisone injections to calm them down.
Hope this helps. Look on Google re Bursitis

Bursa becomes very painful. I do a lot of general workout, so I am not a typical older person. Fell that life has ended for me. I used to travel a lot, now just hotel/beach holidays are left for me. Boring!!!!!!!
