So sorry you are experiencing such pain. I am praying mine will go away in the next six months. Doctors don’t tell you this could happen when you have your consultation. I know 5 people who have had TKR and they tell me the burning went away after one year, so I hope this happens in my case too. This was not the outcome I expected and would not ever do my other knee, no matter how painful it is to walk. Six months in and I am back to how I was before the operation in terms of stiffness and pain. I would not ever recommend this operation.
God Bless you too Charlie.

Hi- I started searching on Google about knee pain and burning after Total Knee Replacement. I am 13 weeks post op and have completed 3 PT sessions every week but have had much stiffness and burning pain increasing over the last 5 weeks. I was supposed to have the other knee done at the 12 week mark but was afraid to do it considering how my left knee was doing. My surgeon agreed I needed more healing even tho financially it would have been fantastic to get it done as we were at the 100% paid by insurance status for any remaining covered expenses for 2024. I am wanting to ask you how you are doing now and if the pain did subside, how long after the surgery did you finally feel better? Thank you.
