It’s 3 weeks since my total knee replacement, and my knee is so stiff as well. My knee healed so fast and scar tissue followed, which makes my knee feel like it’s incased in a block of cement, it’s not flexing. It looks like I have to get a knee manipulation, and better aggressive therapy. Very stressful.

I had two total knee replacements then 20 some years later had to have two total knee revisions since everything wore out. 4 weeks after surgery now and walking without a cane. I am up to 105 on pulling the knee back. And yes, there IS severe pain after surgery

So many great videos on how to get that artificial knee working as good maybe better than the one you had.. science has come a long way in the past twenty years

I had bilateral knee (at the same time) replacement at San Francis Hospital in Puyallup, Wa. I spent 10 days in their care. I am very grateful that I received the best treatment possible including physical therapy.

So excited to share- My PT has me on the same exact exercise program I'm in my 4th-wk. from 2-total knee replacements. It's truly effective & I'm doing great- just a little more work on straightening my knee & I'm good to go- Thank you for sharing this easy to follow video for other's to achieve their goals for a better pain free life- ;)

Very comprehensive and helpful

Yes indeed an excellent video focussing totally on recovery after surgery.

Why not use patients that have had surgery ... it gives a false impression of recovery when someone is pain free and no undergone surgery.

Great video! Clear and easy to follow. I would suggest practising these exercises well before your knee replacement surgery so that you are familiar with them and know what you are expected to do. This knowledge and practice will enhance your post-op recovery.

This is the last video I'l watch, so many folks report how well its going. The replacement is the 19th op on my knee, I'd had septic arthritis, nearly lost my leg and absolutely everything has scar tissue on it in the knee area, I'm at about 105 degrees after 4 months and I'm told I'm making amazing progress. Looking at how badly I am doing in comparison gets me down even though I know mine is different. It normally makes me smile to see others doing well but there is so much pain still its getting difficult. I can walk for miles, have been doing stairs properly since week 4 and not used walking aids since week 3 but, oh boy! the pain has been off the charts. I'm only posting this for others who have also had even more complicated replacements, it's ok, keep going and keep your spirits up. Remember, we all have different situations and it's ok if you are doing differerntly as long as you are doing the work. To those who are doing better than I, good luck going forward and keep up the good work, I know from previous operations I've had, like ACL reconstructions, that reading others doing well is inspiring. I'll sign off with this, I'm struggling but I'm winning, I'm upset but working and, I'm able to walk on sand, mud, grass without it giving way, I walked 12 miles last week in one day and today I cycled on my static cycle till my muscles didn't work..not my joint ;-)

found this helpful seen knee operations before but this one was clearer being a close up.

I feel good walking w a my own two legs. Love it no pain sure I get sore, steps...boy keep going.

Happy Valentines day and know double knees are pulling for you.💜🕊

I never heard of that before both needs the same time At the hospital where I go they won't do 2 knees same time .

This me a better understanding What to spect I'm scheduled for my knee with placement April 19th 2021. I think mine's gonna last 30 years Samsung retired don't work anymore. I had to retire early Age 61 Because of my knee I used to be a custodian at the University Can I do desk work Cause I have a development disability . Now I'm almost 65. I just don't like it did governor shut everything down where I couldn't get my surgery until now.

I exercise both legs...does not seem quite right not to do both. Knees are my issue not hips... do these exercises relate to both scenarios?

when do you begin these exercises after surgery?

@SnappingKameChan

Most protocol is ambulation/walking the day of surgery and exercises the next day. The amount and/or "intensity" of exercises vary according to the individual. But the key is not to remain immobile since it's essentially "a race against scar tissue". (As scar tissue begins forming as soon as the surgery is completed, since that is the body's natural response.) Hope this helps. 😊

+Susan Marcotte hi Susan, i'm Susan, also. i just had total k.r. done on Mr 16th. pure hell, because my surgery involved putting reebar on top and bottom of the implant, because i didnt have enough bone to connect to. my surgery took over 3 hours. the most painful thing i have ever done and now, i need my other one done, but honestly, I am cringing at the thought... I had to go to a skilled nursing facility, after my 3 day stay in the hosp., because i have 2 flights of stairs going up to my apt., then another steep one going up tp my bedroom. I stayed at that facility for 15 days, had to beg for ice, wait sometimes almost 45 min before they responded to giving me a pain killer and didnt give me enough PT.. so, now i am home, happier in my own environment, but scared to death of falling down my stairs. i didnt feel safe to go home, but they discontinued my therapies and said medicare would not pay past my discharge date. Now, I have to wait for my outpatient PT to start in 2 days, but in the meantime, without therapy guidance, i am trying on my own to follow youtube videos on t.k.r. exercises. for anyone out there reading this, food for thought..

Susan Marcotte: I had both knees done 5 years apart because it took me 5 years to get up the courage to repeat the horribly painful experience of the first knee replacement. Now several years past, I am happy I did the second one, but I did tell my surgeon that I was happy I wasn't an elephant because NO WAY could I have done this a third or fourth time. Take your time. You'll know when you are ready to do the second knee.

How old are you guys?, im considering knee replacement but I'm still 40, what do you think?

very nicely done.. boneandjointsurgeon

It cracks me up how they perfect this unique new language to soften the blow of getting knee replacement surgery. First of all, you don't get a day or two - to rest and recover from the surgery & anesthesia. They practically haul your buttes straight to Physical therapy after a couple hours sleep. I think PT is in the morning and night .... maybe even afternoon. At least it seemed like it. They tend to give you Tramadol (a placebo) for pain. Good luck. You can forget about an opiate ... that's only for doctors, nurses and rich people. Then around 2-3 days in, you get taken to a room to sit in a chair that looks like a toilet seat and the nurse washes you. Everywhere! So make sure you lose weight before surgery. If you think it would help, watch a knee replacement surgery on You Tube. Its riveting.

Physical therapy right away is essential because you are in a race against scar tissue so if you don’t want to have a limp for the rest of your life, you have to do the exercises. They are painful but necessary

I still have pain today I overdid it I was on my feet all day and now my muscles in my legs are so sore it’s crazy you have to really listen to everything your doctor says and do the exercises as painful as they are you have to do them, That’s my advice to you

For most people how fast you recover is up to you. Strecthing and exercise is the only way you will get back on your feet again and get rid of the pain. I know I had replacement surgery. If your physical therepist tells you to take it easy then you better get a different one.

They never mention the months of pain.

For the doctors, its all about extracting money from the patients. When I had my knee replacement, I slept all night. Physical Therapy began the first morning and again at night for 2-3 days. Once you leave the hospital, you begin go to Physical therapy everyday for the next 30 days except for the weekend. I reached my goal in 2 weeks. I wanted to leave therapy because i met my goal, but they chewed me out and coerced me to keep coming. The woman pressured me to finish the last 2 weeks of PT. She insisted I still needed to go. (Why would a person still need to attend PT when they already met their goal? ) I'll tell you why. Because if you don't keep coming for the 30 days, they lose big money. Its all about MONEY.

There are total knee replacements where you will have a scar. Then there is arthroscopic (minimally invasive) surgery where only a small cut is made so the scar is much less noticeable and depending on what needs to be corrected the scar may even be on the side of your knee instead of on front.

I had my Franciscanhealth knee replacement sugary 3 months ago in Morresville IN and am still in constant pain & cannot sleep at all. If I had been informed of the pain involved I would have NEVER have had the operation. If the pain continues in the next months I will consider amputation of the leg to get rid of the pain.

+Bob Dillow ....Bob I am so sorry to hear that you still are having knee pain after your replacement surgery. I too, THINK that my knee pain will disappear if I have knee replacement. My problem is that I can not find a doctor willing to take a chance on doing the surgery. You see, I have extreme knock-knees, and I suffer from MS. My knees are so crooked that I might be in worse shape after the replacement than I am right now. There is no guarantee that surgery will be successful on ANY knee. Also, it would be impossible for me to rehabilitate as I can not lift my legs because of muscle atrophy. My MS and knee deformity have doomed me to pain. But after the experience that you're going through, I may just accept my fake and consider my blessings. Although very slowly, I can still walk. I keep being told that I might be in a wheelchair if I have the knee surgery. In a wheelchair with brand new knees is real cute, ain't it! I hope you are not still thinking about amputating your leg. You thinking about doing that tells me the level of your pain was damn near unbearable!!! You are not alone. There are those of us who can relate to what you're going through. Getting old is a b***h! We have to consider the alternatives, try to focus on our blessings and stay strong.

TY, but the book is about knee arthritis, not knee replacements. The video is tagged for knee replacements. There is a huge difference. I know. Both my knees were replaced in Oct, and neither hip is involved, nor do the phys therapists concern themselves with them. Therefore, it appears this guy has either tagged his video incorrectly or he has chosen to show rehabbing two completely different joints - KNEES and HIPS!

Recovery is hard and that is an actor not someone who is actually recovering from knee replacement surgery!!!

Is it just me, or is everyone needing to lose excess weight? Doctors should be honest and frank with their patients, and explain cause-and-effect, "you carry extra weight for 20-30 years and parts wear out", especially load-bearing parts. Moderation in all things ... oh hell why bother. No one wants to think or reason.
