Guest guest Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 HELLO TO ALL MY FREINDS HERE AT T_J_R. I am on my second tkr( right knee). The operation took place 1/24/11. My left knee was done on 7/7/10. So far all is going well. I go to pt 3x a week. This past Friday my therepist said I had scar tissue building up on the left knee joint. You can actually feel the grinding when you place your hand there. The theripist showed me how to manipulate the knee cap while in a straight position. We are going to work on it. I knew something was wrong these last few months as my left knee became more and more painful to extend straight while sitting in a chair. I hope all will get back to normal. I too look forward to the day I can kneel again at church.. I always find this group most helpful in giving suppoet and very useful info. I was wondering how long did most of you take pain meds after operation and during pt. Right now I am taking percoset for pain. I would like to stop taking it soon the pain however still HURTS. I know my Dr. likes to cut you off by 8 weeks post op....Have a great weekend and thanks for all your suppoet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
