Hello @kneeproblem -- have you talked with your doctor or physical therapist to see if they have any suggestions on how you can improve the knee? Are the therapy exercises you do focused on strengthening the leg and knee? Unfortunately we are patients like yourself and can only share our experiences on what has worked for us for treatments.

Yikes sounds like your doing all you can. What do Therapist and Dr say? Do you think being a partial makes a difference? Sorry to hear this. Hopefully, time with your efforts will help too. Best of luck. Perhaps a second opinion would help.

I ice then take a hot shower with a shower chair to stretch my leg out! It really helps in the morning and before I go to bed. I get a good stretch and it feels great
