i had the same issue after my surgery. Was very painful to walk and swelling was from my knee to my feet. My surgeon prescribed a course of steroids and it took care of the issues.

I am 2 weeks out from surgery. Have not been able to get off walker, as I still wince a little when putting full weight on my leg. Dr said he could prescribe some anti-inflammatories, but not quite yet. When were your steroids prescribed?
