Sounds like my knee. My operation is over 5 years and it bothers me like day one. The more I exercise the tighter it gets. Quit doing alot of things. Seeing the Surgeon Monday and talk about it. Then we talk about my other knee for surgery. Good luck.
Hi @grammygolfs - your experience definitely sounds like a nightmare. It must be so frustrating to still have so much pain after more than 2 years for both knees. I'm glad you got a second opinion in AZ - but sorry it wasn't more encouraging. Is there anything you have found that helps? being in the pool? more (or less) exercise? I've heard a lot of people say they are helped by water therapy, acupuncture and myofascial release. In case you haven't seen it, here is a link that might help....https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/myofascial-release-therapy-mfr-for-treating-compression-and-pain/
