Damage from Iovera Nerve block prior to TKR

I was researching Iovera reviews to see if it was something that would help with knee pain. These reviews are not encouraging. I had TKR in 2009 and again in 2019…on the same knee! Didn’t use the same surgeon because I was in so much pain after the first replacement I’m still in pain with that knee and now my “good” knee is hurting. I take 4 Percocet daily and they don’t do much for pain anymore. I’m so over it…

I am so sorry and your story is the very reason I am almost resigned to the pain without the surgery. The Iovera might help but it seems more people than not are not happy with it and it is only a temporary fix if it does help. My "good" knee is hurting too and I suspect it won't be long until I am on the strong pain meds. I sure hope they can fix you up. My doctor just blows it off saying that most people that continue to have a problem are the ones that don't do the rehab. I'm afraid I might be one of them!!!
