My wife and I just saw her surgeon yesterday. Her knee was replaced in June of 2021. Our Pastor even asked her about two weeks ago as she walked by if that was her shoe making that noise. That’s when she finally gave in to my insisting she get it checked out. X-rays from yesterday, no change from last years. Surgeon has never heard of this happening a year after surgery. He did notice she has very tight hamstrings. He is consulting with his fellow knee and hip specialist. We have total confidence in him. She starts PT next week hoping this brings some improvement. Praying you get an answer too!

@lrcraig : I posted about noisy knee shortly after my TKR in 2018. Initially there was a very audible “crack” sound (and a slight popping feeling) with every step I took. It lasted at least a year, but then it gradually subsided. I still have that crack/pop when I do some hamstring exercise - bending and stretching leg while prone, at the point where I bend it to the maximum point, but other than that no more weird noises or sensations.
