@rayreich3 @dickiedo it’s amazing how differently we all react to TKRs. I suspect for people with scar tissue that really being faithful to PT is the only possible remedy, if there is any. I’ve come to realize how fortunate I have been to not have had these problems after either of my TKRs.
I think a successful TKR requires a great surgeon but even the best possible surgeon can’t do anything about a person whose body generates scar tissue.
I hope you both have some success in defeating this problem. If you do please keep us updated, there are so many with this or similar problems.
