Suggest Treatment For Knee Swelling And Pain
Hello. My name is Brenda I am 51 and had Knee replacement surgery on Feb 14th. I had problems with swelling and getting it to bend so they did the manipulation after 10 weeks. I am still having problems with swelling and pain and I have only been able to get it to around 100-102 degrees. My doctor said I am doing fine but I feel like something is wrong. I still go to therapy twice a week and do therapy at home twice a day. I have a lot of crunching and points of shooting pain when bending. What should I do?

HI
You need x-rays to check on the stability of the replacement since what you're experiencing isn't the normal course postoperatively
