TKR on right knee and left knee is complaining
Posted , 5 users are following.
Hi everyone, I am new on this forum. I had my TKR on the right knee at the end of April. My left knee is now complaining and the ankle on that leg is very swollen. The doc thought I had a blood clot and sent me off for a DVT scan. Turns out I have a Baker's cyst. Says it will go away on it 's own in 2-3weeks, which is almost up and that leg is still causing me problems. Has this happened to anyone else?

I sympathise with you! It took about a month to clear up. I also had a TKR on the leg about 9mth later and my other knee has deteriorated since :0(

Have you asked your surgeon about another TKR and if so, does he agree it is time? Some people get them both done at once so I think it is pretty much up to you to decide what you can tolerate.
