Pain months after Total Knee Replacement
Joint Replacements | Last Active: Dec 28, 2021 | Replies (53)Comment receiving replies
Hi, I had Mako Robotic assist TKR 5 months ago. From the front of my knee to my foot it is somewhat numb. I had the nerve conduction test and was told the main nerves are ok. They compared with my other leg. I have been on gabapentin for about 3 months. My foot and top of it gets so tight when I’m resting. If I do any house work or other activity by the afternoon I can barely walk. It feels like something is rubbing or pushing on something. That’s the only way I can explain it. The surgeon comment was I don’t know what that is. I had my left knee replaced on 2014. I had no problems with it. It’s very frustrating that after 5 months I’m having pains and trouble walking. I sent an email to my doctors office requesting a MRI. That was a week ago. I am going to follow up on Tuesday. Has anyone had any problems like this?

I had TKR just about 3yrs ago and the pain in the front of my lower knee to shin is terrible. Tight , sharp, rubbing pain that is at a 9 everyday. If I am seated pain is zero but as soon as I stand, wow, walking is almost out of the question. I tried a revision, 15 different nerve blocks, cut nerves , Stemwave PNS implants, and Abbot DRG SPINAL stimulator. Nothing has worked. I was accepted into UPENN PAIN CENTER and am hopeful they have answers, Sept.22. Mentally I found Biofeedback attention training very helpful getting thru each day BEST OF LOOK TO YOU
