I'm 16 weeks post tkr and still have tight band which I think might be from fluid around the knee which doesn't seem to go away. My Dr. Is hopeful it will go away in time. I hope he's right.

My thigh and knee are swollen due to a mild infection. I am taking Keflex in the hopes it will keep the infection at bay. Best wishes for you!

I've had mine for five years and it's so frustrating as it stops me from doing so many things! Its starts on one side then travels under the knee to the other side. I had to quit walking as the more I walked the tighter and severe the pain got. I ware a brace on it sometimes to to make it feel secure. Good luck with yours
