Yes! I have tons of ice packs. I rotate them out throughout the day after exercise. Less now that I’m 7 weeks in and not in as much pain. I’m trying to get in as much ADL and exercises as possible before this next critical appointment, so I’m exercising about 6-7 times a day and icing/elevating 30 min all day.
Thanks for the response! KG

Hope by now your knee flexion has improved. Did your doctor ever say why you might not be able to flex your knee as far as he would like.
I had TKR on September 8th and my knee flexion has been stuck at 125 for a couple months because of a Baker’s Cysr behind my knee. This can be quite common and it feels like someone has placed a ball or rolled up towel behind my knee hence preventing me from bending it painlessly or as much as my non surgical leg
