Spacer replacement 4 years after TKR

Hi, I have the same issue a popping sound when I walk (actually any movement with my knee) but I also have great flexibility with my TKR. My surgeon has suggested to have surgery to replace the spacer with a thicker spacer to tighten up my knee joint. He thinks my knee joint is to loose. Have you done any additional surgery? Or have any other thoughts or recommendations? I am about 8 moths out from surgery.

@kland did you eventually do the spacer replacement and how did it turn out for you? I’m considering it and do not know what to do but I have total instability any help you can provide is appreciated!
