I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
You had undergone total knee replacement on both knee. So you might have risk for thrombosis. For that doctor given you some clot preventing injections.It could be low molecular weight heparin injection that act as anti-thrombotic agent.
Hope I have answered your question.
