It can take a while to heal, which is different for everyone. However, doing the recommended exercises during the healing process will definitely help end the pain and help you regain the use of your knee over that time. Make sure you don't overdo other activities.
If the level of pain changes, check in with your doctor.

If you have knee pain, do you need a replacement?
Without knowing much about the knee pain or your age, I would say that in most cases, knee pain does not require a knee replacement. Often, knee pain can be the result of stress to the knee, mild spraining, or even weak bones. Taking a calcium supplement and avoiding strenuous lifting or other difficult activities for a few days should help the pain. If pain persists after that time, it would be best to see your doctor, but needing a knee replacement is still very unlikely.

Can knee replacement get a cortisone shot?
I have often heard about cortisone injections as an alternative to knee replacement but it is un heard of to have injection after the knee replacement. What is the logic behind it? Usually injections are taken to subside the pain that arise from contact of arthritic articular surfaces of knee bones. But when knee replacement is already done I do not see a reason for cortisone injection. At the same time if there is sudden severe pain in your knee after replacement surgery doctor might give you a shot of knee injection. Another possibility is if you have partial knee replacement and non operated compartment of your knee joint troubling you. Hope it helps.
