HI
Thank for choosing HCM, Here your knee surgery and the pain you described here is not much related with each other, more over you had surgery, it is several weeks gone, it is for sure not post-op. complications, must be something else, postural pain first to consider,, still you can discus this with your surgeon who operated on you, Have nice day.
I find this answer helpful
