Thank you. Manipulation under anesthesia. Cracking the joint manually by your surgeon to break up the scar tissue.

I’m very thankful I have a functioning knee now. I’d still give it a “C” though. Not what I thought would be the outcomes. I did everything I was suppose to do.

If you don’t things are going right- get a second opinion. And do it before week 10 post-op. Also make your concerns known early, as it was covered in the original bundle cost as I had raised questions. Your surgeon needs to do the MUA, not a new Dr.
MUAs are most effective when accomplished before week 12 post-op. It only takes about 10 minutes so don’t let them say their schedule is too full. I had mine done at about 6:00 a.m. before the real surgery schedule started. Still have to be sedated with pain meds as well. There are risks as well. But, now I can get to 0* straight and 125* flexion. Can hike and ride my bicycle again.
