Peripheral Neuropathy after total knee replacement

Yeah, I know everyone is different. I just commented that my worsening (numbness only) neuropathy was contemporaneous with knee replacement, and that is factual. I was not intending to imply causation of any kind. I still have lots of swelling and I hope both conditions improve soon.

Hi @islandfrog, You mentioned it's been almost a couple of months since your knee replacement and you still have lots of swelling which I'm sure could be adding to your symptoms. I know when I had my TKR, my surgeon hammered me about not icing and elevating my leg enough during my recovery. Are you still icing and elevating the leg frequently every day?
