Any Suggestion For Swelling, Stiffness In Knee Even After Total Knee Replacement?
My husband had a total knee replacement in January 2014 and is still having swelling, pain at night and the knee continue to swell and become stiff when he sit or walk for a period of about 2 to 4 hours during the day. He has contacted his surgeon and the instructions given has not solved his problem. Thanks

Hi
Hope this message finds you in good health.
I have gone through your query in detail and understand your concern.
may be its a implant related issue, may be not fitted properly.
otherwise after replacement , the pain should virtually go away.
get an fresh xray done to see whats wrong
Nothing to worry about, You should eventually get back to normal.
Get back to me for any FOLLOW UP QUERIES anytime.
Kind Regards,
