Yes,
When you see your Dr. ask him if he can put you out again and Manipulate your leg. My dr had to do mine to get to the 115-120 degree mark. Just advising only!

I just saw your reply and question. After my TKR in Feb of 23 in May of the same year I did have MUA done and did PT 2x a week the CPM machine and could get to 120 but never could hold it on my own. I think my biggest culprit is a very defective quad muscle that I think I injured very young and it never healed properly and consequently never got addressed. Right now I feel stuck but open to other things than PT and water aerobics.
