PT for how long?

@covidstinks2023 I think I am doing quite well. My range of motion is very good. My main complaint now is balance. Also, my other knee needs a TKR so that makes it hard for me to tell how well I am doing because I'm still experiencing pain with stairs. squats, etc. I just didn't know what the suggested time-frame for PT was.

@dna41 everyone is different I was in therapy 6 weeks pre TKR to strengthen then 5 months post TKR therapy. Yes balance for me was an issue of which my PT addressed. A good therapist knows when you are ready to be discharged five years later I’m getting ready for the other knee to be replaced and I do find balance is issue at times again which my pt will address
