Hi , thanks for replying 😊 I’m sorry to hear of your pain!! The surgeon says I have a “mechanical issue” and things like acupuncture won’t work. He wants to do a manipulation under anesthesia. Do you know about this kind of thing?

I had an MUA done. You will need to follow up with 10 continuous days of PT and then PT 3times a week for a few more weeks.My experience was very painful. The MUA breaks up scar tissue but your knee still will not bend without pain. I had to work through the pain and very glad that I did. I now can bend to 130. Get a good PT, it makes all the difference.
