Burning after total knee replacement

Thank you. Tried massage. It seems to be worse after exercise. I guess I need to be more patient. I had a problem with the ligaments in my knee; they were stretched out, so I also had to have intramedullary rods in my femur and tibia when I had TKR. Icing helps somewhat. I am trying to avoid taking Tramadol.

May God Bless all of you that think your burning painful knees will ever go away. I had both knees replaced eight years ago and have been living with the burning and aching ever since. I have been on everything from Gabapentin to Oxycontin. Nothing helps. Doctors dont know why. I finally decided this is the way it is so live with it. Oh ya. I am very depressed but when its over. Its over. May God Bless. Charlie
