Yes did PT immediately after mako-replacement (robotic assistant) for 6weeks and again at year and 3 months after original replacement, I gained a little more movement-bend, but still have pain. Even at night. No one has suggested a 2nd replacement or a version. Afraid if I do it I’ll have same issues. It still feels
Ike a band around my knee, numbness, heavy and Bad balance. I’m in Md. and winter in Naples, Fl. Any suggestions?!

I also had mako TKR at Mercy Hospital in Baltimore, MD. It was 2 yrs. ago and I have a lot of tightness, heaviness and pain. Second opinion dr. wants to do another surgery which isn't going to happen! I have great ROM but have hyperextension which makes me feel like it will give out when walking. Let me know if you find an answer. I wish you luck.
