Yes! Thank you for someone else having my problem. Surgeon looks at me like I'm,an,alien. I'm 7 months post ok and still having tight band feeling, and I think it hinders my,bending.

Many people have this problem after TKR. My right knee has a VERY tight band feeling almost 2 years post op. The left one has it, too, but not nearly as bad as the right one and it’s been almost 8 months. My surgeon just shrugs his shoulders and says it’s always going to feel somewhat tight. Neither knee hurts and both are stable and functional so I’m trying to learn to ignore that tight band feeling. Hasn’t worked yet though...😟
