<p>5 weeks after MAKO robotic arm assisted TKR</p><p>Though I made good progress the first three weeks or so after surgery, I feel like lately I’m stuck in neutral and not progressing. Knee is still tight and swollen and sometimes sore and feels pretty much as it did a week ago. ROM is 113 but has been the same for a couple of weeks. Anyone else encounter this issue?</p>

Hi @clbs, you'll notice that I moved your message to this related discussion where people are talking about expectations of Mako Robotic Arm TKR at 6 weeks. I can sense your frustration that after experiencing progression for the first 3 weeks, you feel like there's been no progress for the past 2 weeks. I'm hoping that @saeternes @ellerbracke @bushy @lecoeur13 @phoenixpal and @artscaping will share their experiences from the 5-6 week period and offer tips of getting over this hump.

Clbs, are you continuing with PT and exercising? How's the swelling?
