Did you have physical therapy after your knee replacement? Do you still have swelling or redness in the knee area?

I'm going to have knee replacement in 2 months. I don't know much about it but I don't think you should have such pain after 7 months. If your doctor won't help or explain what may be causing it I would go to someone else. Make sure they're board certified. Don't give up; it's the doctor's responsibility to treat your pain and find out what is causing it. Good luck.
