Has anyone had a tight band feeling after total knee replacement?

Yes, you are correct in that recommendations do vary. PT had me using the leg press right after surgery; they said not to use the leg press until well into healing though. It is amazing how different everyone recovers. At 8 months I was at the point where my friend was at 2 months. My heart goes out to those who are continuing to struggle long term. Wish there were answers.

Well we are all in the same boat lol. I guess various PT’s have different recommendations. I used the leg press during therapy sessions. I agree the recumbent bike is good. I have been using the elliptical; therapist did not object. I walk on treadmill. Chair yoga is ok. I sincerely hope the band disappears in two months then I will be 😃 happy.
