Scar tissue after knee replacement

I’ve had both knees replaced 1/19 and 4/20, and neither hurt and both are stable and functional. Unfortunately, both are pretty tight especially the older one but WAY better than they were before. It’s a long, hard recovery and rehab but worth it in the end!

@pattyp845 - You mentioned in your earlier post that you saw a surgeon that said your patella was rubbing on the femur. Did the surgeon mention or diagnose you with Patellofemoral pain syndrome (runner's knee)? There is another discussion about the condition - Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) or Runner's knee: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/patella-femoral-syndrome/

There are some exercises that may help - Top 3 Exercises for Chondromalacia or Patellofemoral Pain Sydrome:
