TKR: Pre vs Post surgery ROM related?

Hi my range of movement is very limited after a full knee replacement. I cannot bend my knee to go up/ down stairs. Driving is tricky and sitting on the floor is out of the question. I have been told l might need to have a 2nd knee replacement. Has anyone else experienced this? I can do squats sometimes.

@donheads How long ago was your TKR? Do you know what your ROM is? If you are not too far out from your TKR it will probably improve. If you are, I would see the surgeon and get things checked on. Depending on what the original surgeon says, you may want to schedule a consult with another orthopedic surgeon also -- the best possible one you can find, who is not affiliated with the same medical center as the first surgeon.
