Just had stitches out (2) from arthroscopic to remove scar tissue causing patella to catch on scar tissue. Problem resolved. Just made trip this weekend to Ocala fl for winter. At 6 month mark of TKR. Good luck with arthroscopic.
I feel sorry for you after reading this post because my condition in both knees following TKR is exactly like yours and I literally feel your pain. If you decide to have the scar tissue removed I hope you will share your progress and let us know if the scar tissue returns.
Get a second opinion on your own, not your surgeons suggestion. Go out of the group or area. Ask for new Xrays and the possibility of the implants being the wrong size, the alignment off and your knee caps replaced poorly. Follow @babette story. This really does happen to patients
I had the same. My Prtho performed lydia to cut the scar tissue out. Took over two hours. Helped quite a bit. Now, 8 months later (after last procedure) my knee is really hurting. Supposed to see rheumotogist, but 3 month wait. I would be content with another scar tissue removal....
