need help. 7 months ago tkr right knee. all went well. 2 months in i fell down the stairs as my knee gave way. since that point till about #3 weeks ago could not straighten my knee upon pain that floored me. . 2 family members died and had to wear flat shoes as you would, strange thing happened. the sharp pain that i was having has gone, i am starting to build up my strenght again but find that no matter what i do i cant straighten my knee. it feels like i am hitting something, not really sore but uncomfortable ........ 3 months after my right knee, left knee done. that is now 7 months right and 4 months left. left is perfect. really struggling to convert strenght into both knees. is it a case of just takes time ............???????

    I would check with my ortho for a quick x-ray to make sure nothing has moved and that you are structurally OK. Did some some residual scar tissue slip into that space? Ortho will tell you. Try #3 at home for a straight knee...if the doc says "go"...

    Doc first...
