Hello, I have had both knees replaced and revisions on both. 1st revision by another doctor went very well...next revision...Dr. said he found soft bone and had me wear a full leg brace and stay in the hospital TWO WEEKS...I was diagnosed with Cellulitis (look it up) I believe it was due to having the brace on so long. I have been back in the hospital twice since then. I have been on 3 rounds of antibiotics...I saw him 2 weeks ago and he prescribed compression stockings...I have not put them on yet because I see my Primary Dr this week and see what she says. I also wish that I had not had the 2nd revision.
Prayers and good lucy

If the first revision went well, why did you go to another doctor for the second revision? Can you go back to him for an independent review of your status?
