Hi Cindy,
Just a bit off topic. What muscle issues are you having since the TKR? It takes a while for things to settle after a TKR. The rehab takes 2-3 months and it can take a full year for everything to settle into a new normal.
The surgeon also makes a small, vertical cut into the quad muscle right above the patella. This is necessary to release the patella and push it to the side during surgery.
But just changes to gait can have an affect on other parts of the lower body.
I hope you are well.
Joe
