Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement,  's  Response
MS can cause pain even after Total knee replacement. What is your surgeon is saying. Some time lack of physiotherapy and weak muscles also hurt even after good surgery. So focus on thigh and calf muscle strengthening. One more thing get other side replacement as well because chances of knee implant getting loose are high as you may put more weight on operated side as other side knee is still weak and arthritic. I think after muscle strengthening you will feel much better. Take calcium and vitamin b 12 as well.
