@sprinrosa64 Good afternoon. I was just surfing by and took an opportunity to jump in here. Connect is a group of folks who "have been there". They have personal experience to share. As mentors, we neither diagnose nor prescribe. We listen and try very hard to connect you with someone who has been there. Just remember, everyone is different in what they feel and how they describe it.

I have had the TKR and I have had the post-surgery knee pain. Please take a look at MFR, Myofascial Release Therapy. Fascia makes up tendons and ligaments and even things like your ITbands. So it can be tough, or delicate as it covers every part of your body like a glove. Next time you cut up a chicken.....look at the membrane between leg and body. That is fascia. When it is near surgical areas it can build up and become a restriction. The fascia restrictions then cause pain all over the area. Many of my fellow TKR members find some relief.

There is a discussion about MFR on Connect.

Have you tried any alternative treatments?
May you have peace and ease.
Chris

My pain seems to much more nerve than muscle not sure if MFR is useful on nerves
