JK, thanks for the reply. My surgeon says IT band syndrome is the most common complication of TKR. His advice: Go back on the Celebrex (but I can’t due to high BP). Stretch. Talk to PT. Ugh

@clvclv If this is a "tight band feeling", there is a group that discusses that; here is the link:

As I said, I was fortunate in not having any problems of that nature but I hope you can find others in this group who have also experienced it and may have suggestions.
