Calf pain after TKR

I am 9 weeks PO, I have good ROM and straightness after my TKR. I am having difficulty walking normally due to pain in the back of the calf. This same pain inhibits me from placing my non surgical leg down the next step when walking down stairs. I stretch my calf often thru the day. Any suggestions?

I had same problem. Surgeon and pt guy could not identify a cause. My surgeon recommended intake Meloxicam for 30 days to see if that would break the cycle. It did!
