Answer 2

My experience is that the operation itself is a snap, BUT the early Physical Therapy immediately after can be tough. Pay attention to your Therapist ... the harder you work at the beginning, the better off you will be in the long run. There are NO Shortcuts! It took 3-4 wk before things started to heal properly. Again, there are NO SHORTCUTS. Follow the Therapist religiously. I don't even have a bit of pain now and full mobility after ~6 months.

Pain after knee replacement can be due to so many factors.

It could be exercise or therapy induced- if it is then please do not worry. Its gonna pain a little for sure.

But if the pain is due to some other causes which could be pathological then you should run to your knee replacement surgeon.

Answer 3

it is normal to experience pain after knee surgery for a few weeks as the skin, muscles and bone have been cut and take time to heal. This normally settles down within a few weeks. It is really important to keep going with your exercise programme as that will help you make the quickest recovery.

People usually find they have much less pain after knee replacements, because even though there is pain from the surgery, the problem in the knee (most likely Arthritis) has gone, so lots of people actually find they have much less pain even straight after surgery.
