TKR revision 5 months ago, can’t get leg to straighten

My only help is to picture a jelly donut under your knee with your leg outstretched on the bed and try to push that jelly out as hard as you can! Perhaps it was the visualization for me that helped. I've had a TNR and 2 revisions and it has worked for me every single time!

Sounds like one of the exercises I do in my PT sessions. They fold up a hand towel and put it on the table under my surgical knee. I then press down as hard as I can with my knee and then raise my leg and repeat. 30 times as I recall. Sort of like a reverse push up.
