At 11 months after tkr and if sit more than 30 minutes, it starts to pain when and continuously pop very loud when walking. My knee hurts 24/7. I ice all day long. My yearly followup is 4/16/2020 but I have seen my doctor or his PA about 5 times and texted. They keep saying I am doing great, no infection. But I am wondering if piece has loosen.

@maxy That's a long time for your knee to be bothering you still. Has your doctor had any Xrays done? In the early days of being post-TKR I had a lot of pain and my doctor was seeing me frequently and had Xrays done. They showed nothing, but for me the pain resolved at about six weeks TKR so we have no idea what caused it. If he has not had an Xray done perhaps you should suggest it. If you still do not get any resolution from that doctor you may want to consider changing to a different doctor, someone who is definitely highly regarded. From what I have heard on here if you want to see a different doctor most will not see you if you are within a year of the TKR but you are almost there. You should not have to live in pain.
