What Causes Pain In The Knee After A Knee Replacement Surgery?

I must have left knee replacement surgery. Not necessarily at the same time. However their is a complication with the right knee in that there is a plate above the patela that may present a complication. I am in pain with my left knee so that would be where I would start. The doctor I need is one that has seen this situation and has experience in this area.

Physical Therapist or Physiotherapist,  's  Response
hi,

try doing some static exercises to strengthen the quadriceps muscles. also Reverse walking will help to strengthen the last end of the muscle tendon. usually a guided exercise under the physical therapist will help. using therapeutic ultrasound therapy will help activate the cells and boost the metabolism and help you in ease of your pain and other factors. if the pain persists in future an x-ray will be guided by a ortho and prevention is better than cure so there is no harm taking a visit to an expert.

with the grace of God you will be fine soon.
