Hi @bill5, I see in your earlier post you mentioned you had your knee replacement done on 6/7/2022. I think it's still early in your recovery process for the TKR. I did all of my recovery at home with the walking, knee exercises and stretches along with the 2 most important things my surgeon told me to focus on - icing and elevating the leg to control the swelling. I found out at my 1 month or so followup with the surgeon that I was not elevating my leg enough. I was doing it after the exercises several times a day while icing it. My surgeon told me I should be elevating the leg when I was not doing exercises or walking. He basically wanted me to keep the leg elevated as much as possible.

I think the swelling comes with the exercises while your knee and leg are recovering. The exercises probably add to it a little which is why the icing and elevating are so important. Are you doing a lot of icing and elevating?
