Scar tissue after knee replacement

Hello. I am new to the forum and i still 2 yrs later experience sharp behind the knee and the outer part of my knee as well. Hasn't gotten better nor has it gotten worse since surgery. I've done 3 stints of rehab and now starting number 4. I have no idea what's wrong nor does the 3 surgeons I've had look at it for different opinions. I am not ready for a revision but they said its an option. Quite frustrated at this point.

Has anyone mentioned you may have the wrong fit? I had a revision 3 months ago after a year and one half of misery, pain, limp etc. I also did extensive PT, hoping it would be better and also I was told my problem was scar tissue and given exercises for that.
My revision doctor thought probably my fit was wrong and that was the problem plus tibia was slightly crooked and had to be filed down. Minimal scar tissue but he removed it as well.
I don’t know if any of this is helpful but I feel the revision was worth it, best of luck
