Manipulation for tkr

Has anyone here had an MUA as late as 5+ months post TKR? My flexion started declining at 4 months post op, despite doing physical therapy 3x week. Any experience to help me with suggestions? I just know I didn't do all of this not to see it all the way through to success. Thanks!

I take it you mean 3 sessions with a PT each week. Have you been doing physical therapy, with a therapist and at home, 3x day everyday since your surgery? That's a tough schedule to meet 100% - still some pt everyday after surgery is required, especially in that first month.

As for MUA, never had it. Is that to break up scar tissue?
