What Does Pain And Stiffness In Knee After Knee Replacement Mean?

My mother is 68 yrs old and had a partial knee replacement less than a year ago. She has been doing great since the surgery. Yesterday she stepped out of the car and began limping on that leg. She said that it hurt behind the knee and it felt stiff to move the knee. Today it doesn't hurt as much, but the calf is hard. What could this be?
