Hello @momof2sons,

I'd like to invite @mav19, @robinleslie and @jeffybird who have all talked about foot numbness/pain following their total knee replacement. I am also inviting @drmom who talked about different pains after their TKR including buttocks pain.

@momof2sons, if you are comfortable sharing, how is your PT and rehab going with your knee? How is your flexion and extension? Have you had a chance to discuss your other pains with your surgeon or provider?

I had my knee replaced in 2006. I can remember following my own surgery that my gait changed slightly and some of the pain I experienced in different areas of my leg/hip area was due to compensating in different ways and changing how I walked some.

@JustinMcClanahan Hi. I have discussed my pain in my buttocks and the numbness in my foot with my doctor. He wants to do an MRI. I’ve been doing great with PT. I have noticed my walk is different. It feels like my right leg is a bit shorter than my left leg LOL. Thank you for replying to me.

Hi, I still have tightness in my TKR knee and poor flexion.
I went to a specialist for my foot numbness, its getting worse.
Im having a sonogram in December.
Ill report the results
Good luck to you
