I have problems with my right IT Band after my TKR. Nothing has helped. One day I can go up 20 stairs and the next a few. I still can't go down any stairs even an inch high.

Sorry you are having problems.

Thanks,
Terri

How long has it been since surgery?
I am now 11 mos out and just now am noticing minute improvements. Dont do any drastic intervention until sufficient healing time has resulted. My Dr said 12-18 mos is not out of the realm of ordinary. Have you had any recommendations for increased B vitamins to facilitate nerve healing? Research that possibility.
Best wishes
