Don’t stop your PT exercises! Whether you do them with a physiotherapist or on your own at home, keep going! Incorporate them into your daily activities. Make them a habit that you never break. Especially important if you are looking at a second TKR, because they will serve as pre-hab. My PT kept reminding me that the soft tissue around the joint and leg takes a year or longer to adjust and align and strengthen. Don’t stop! Keep working on it!

@vtsun Thank you for highlighting the importance of PT. I have become too complacent and need to do better. Appreciate your encouragement.
