Is anyone having fluid/inflammation from TKA, that returns after aspiration of fluid and injection of steroid, 3x and not resolving my post op knee discomfort? I am not in pain. but it clicks like crazy when the fluid builds up! This is very frustrating! Surgery 2/2020I think that i am allergic to some of the components in my ZIMMER NEXT GENERATION prosthetic or my body is fighting this joint for some reason maybe an inflammatory arthritis i didn't know I had? Now they want to go back in to do a SYNOVECTOMY>Im scared! My knee feels hot, no infections all aspirations were negative cultures. THis is so weird! I'm 9 mos out now and it should be normal! Needless i am not going to get left knee done now!
