Yes certainly have 4 1/2 years later Now two bursas have become very painful However have been told they can't be treated as it could affect the TKR
My ortho told me 5 months after the surgery I was one of the 15 to 20% who would likely have issues I also have inoperable scoliosis and stenosis and a few compression fractures plus a few fractures in my spine
This all happened end.if 2023 I am now 81 and am in line for hip orthoplasty on XS Tylenol. Am.in Canada

@deestb, You can have knee bursitis treated without harming the knee replacement. I have had both bursitis in all the knee bursae all at once and the treatment that got them to heal and that was at ten months post TKR. Sonar shockwave therapy made it all better. Shockwave is safe to use around implants. Get a better doctor. They should not just let you continue to suffer. If you have difficulty finding a doctor who is proficient with shockwave you might also call around to physical therapy plac

I'm so sorry.....I have stenosis in my lower spine and L4/L5 issues, I was told as well some just have issues after and apparently I am one. I never had any of these issues with my back and hips and thigh muscles till this knee replacement. I'm 64 here in the states. Even my other knee bothers me at times and I never ever want to do a TRK again.
