Scar tissue after knee replacement

Had scar tissue removed 2 weeks ago that caused patella clunk. Yes, that’s the term. No clunk since. Arthroscopic stitches come out today. See PT tomorrow for final visit. Sat begin drive to Fl. Expect few inches of snow today. Can’t get out of NY State soon enough. Has been 6 months to this day since TKR. Still few issues to resolve but this site will get me through it.

How long did you suffer before your doctor agreed to go in with the scope?. Did he take before and after photos? I'm 4 months past TKR and have painful clunking since surgery really that is getting worse. He says I need to heal more and he won't do a scope for at least 4 more months. I hope to hear from you and thank you for sharing. Sara in Florida

Does anyone know how long after surgery you can have orthoscopic scar removal? I’m almost 2 years out. My right knee is great, but my left is keeping me awake at night. I still have pain on the inside part of the knee in the transition of straightening my leg and the feeling of tightness. Oh- and I never followed up with my surgeon after my surgery- felt a bit traumatized . Thanks!
