Hi @janicemmccarthy, I'm sorry to hear you are having pain after your knee replacement which is normally why you have a knee replacement - to fix or get rid of the pain. I am fortunate in that my TKR from a couple of years ago has went well for me. Here's some information I found that may be helpful.

Have you talked with your doctor or surgeon to see if physical therapy may help?

I finished physical therapy at the end of October before the tendonitis showed up. He said he didn't want to put me in PT again. The pain is so severe that I am having trouble walking and I can not sleep no matter how I place my leg.
