@babette I'm 5 months post-op bilateral and have plenty of pain in right knee, left is getting better. The therapist I see is like yours with the gentle bending and myofascial release. What has cupping done for you? My scars are sensitive too, I've cut a lot of my pants off at the knee! I've been wearing shorts since January.

Although my swelling never went down after my surgery, the pain was minimal. It's only been weeks, almost 2 years since the TKR, that the pain has started to impact my mobility and ability to sleep. I have not gone back to PT. I am waiting until I see the surgeon before doing anything.
I hope that you find relief soon and your swelling starts lessening soon.
Thank you.
