Scar tissue after knee replacement

I waited 7 months. Progress has been slightly better than the first. Surgeon is better and that makes a difference but all in all, I am in agreement with how you wish to proceed. There must be something chemical going on, aside from the scar tissue. No one seems to know, which leads me to the question “Why Not?” If even a minuscule 5-10% experience this painful and frustrating outcome, how is it that there isnt a way to chart a course for that patient ? I try to blame it on the fact that it’s my Immune system or that because I’m on a blood thinner Medication I can’t take an anti-inflammatory . We need to just go on, keep doing as much daily stretching as we can handle and live life!
