I had knee replacement July 23,24 I am having issues with balance. I am still using a walker when I go out. I use a can in the house but I am having issues with my hip & arch in my foot. I do PT 2x a week. Plus I do my exercise at home. I do not go for walks because I don't have anyone to go with. What can I do to help this?

I’m 3 weeks in and I’m glad I turned in to your video not my therapist isn’t doing a good job with me. I learned a few things that I didn’t know concerning a walker which I went 7 days without my walker because the delivery for whatever reason never got it to me. Then when I finally got it I really didn’t need it

I am 66 yrs old,after TKR both legs I able to walk but unable to stand even 10 minutes why please explain thanking you for your advises in this video

If I had a PT that was this attractive, caring and attentive I would have gone more often for therapy and wouldn't be in the shape I am in now. Sadly and with much anger I did not...😠

My right leg clicks a bit out to the right when I walk due to my spasticity (I suffered sids as a baby and diagnosed with hypoxia.) My walking is really well, it's just I feel tension/tightening on uneven levels/sidewalks. Does this exercise help ankle strengthening or is that unrelated to hip movement?

Can anyone tell me about how long average recovery is? Gotta plan around fishing season so wondering when I can be back on the boat

Thank you sooo much!!! You’re amazing

What do you do with shin hurting after surgery

Never have knee replacement surgery. Leave well enough alone. Often, one goes from bad to worse. Remember this is why doctors PRACTICE medicine!

2/1/2yrs into recovery. Pain is 8-10 every day. I asked my Dr to replace my artificial knee.

Excellent video. One thing that is not addressed is which foot is dominant in terms of the step. I am right hand dominant, but LEFT foot dominant. That is to say that I lead off with the LEFT foot rather than the right foot. I am having a hard time convincing my PT that the LEFT foot connected to the replaced LEFT knee is a significant part of the issue of walking or stair stepping. Any Suggestions that I can share with local PT?

I'm 1 1/2 years post op TKR. The post surgical pain was excruciating for months. I'm still going for PT 3 times a week but had to switch from land to pool because of the pain. My surgeon showed me my X-rays and the knee replacement is perfect. I went for a 2nd opinion and had more sophisticated X-rays taken and the 2nd surgeon also said the knee replacement was perfect. I still have so much pain. My other knee is bone-on-bone and I am scared to death to go through another TKR surgery. Will be grateful for any suggestions. Don't know how much longer I can go on like this. I also have had 2 total shoulder replacements. Thank you.

I am 68 years old, I operated my left knee 4 Weeks ago. Still i have too much pain and swelling on my leg I cannot walk too much, because i am very tired please help me to do the best

Excellent Advice!! I’m SO glad I found your channel! Just had left knee replaced today - all out patient - no pain pump- just oxy and Tylenol. I’m ok today but know the pain will start tomorrow as the surgical anesthesia wears off. I was elevating with pillows under my knee/ will change that to a wedge - I fear I’m the type to overdo and try to rush the healing process with too much walking- too soon. I’ll slow down and focus on good form.

Every day I practiced my knee bending since my knee replacement surgery. I'm glad it didn't take long to get better.

Thank you!

thank you so much....6 weeks out and got complacent with range exercises. back on task and again, thank you.

ΗΤΑΝ ΑΥΤΟ ΠΟΥ ΧΡΕΙΑΖΟΜΑΙ !!! ΣΕ ΕΥΧΑΡΙΣΤΩ ΠΟΛΥ!!! ΑΠΟ ΕΛΛΑΔΑ - ΑΘΗΝΑ ...

I am 82 & had knee replacement surgery on 6/3/24. I did well in PT but after that was over I got busy and did not keep up wit it. Now my knee continues to be very stiff and a little painful. I am afraid more scar tissue is forming. Is it too late to do something?

This is quite amazing. Does it go well with TKR?

I just found your site. Thank you very much.

Do I use a walker?

I had TKR on both knees (done a month apart). My skin feels like my skin wants to split open in the surgical area in both knees. What exercise I need to do to get rid of that discomfort/pain? I can’t do my complete PT session without the pain settling in. Thanks in advance for responding

Watching from Australia, 16 days after TKR. I really love all of your video advice. So concise and clear! You answer so many questions i have about how much and when. There is lots of advice from my surgeon, but i dont have a clear picture of how much to push myself with walking and daily activity.

3:07 this was perfect information,thx

How many weeks of these exercise will improve quads strength?

That feeling when kneeling surgery is tomorrow🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Please wish me luck....waiting a long time for both knees to be replaced...R one first. Op now put back to January. I will keep watching your channel.

I'm just a week post and when does the burning and daggers in the foot go away. And the painbehind the knee when does that ease up

Thanks you for the instructions and suggestions. They are slightly different to what I am doing so will add to my exercise programme.

Thankyou for your professional knowledgeable postings.

Thanks Mike I can feel the difference

I watched the video 8 years after my operation 🙂

53 and walk 3 miles a day and ride my bike 15miles a day. Get my surgery next week, and the other in 6 weeks.

Hi Dr Mike, Thanks so much for the wonderful tips. It's been 10 days I had undergone the procedure. I'm sure this video will definitely help me.

Been doing this for the past 3 months. Nothing. No relief whatsoever.

THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO, I JUST HAD SURGERY ON THE 7TH OF NOVEMBER.

Great video thanks for sharing your brilliant work with us 👍🙏💥

I've had KR surgery in early September, just now starting to get a decent night's sleep. It takes time, this is ny second replacement, I had my left knee done a year ago. I'm a,side sleeper so a sleep with a pillow between my legs ( the operated leg resting on top of the pillow ) it allows the leg to remain straight. My Son is a PT and he insist I do squats to strengthen my quadriceps. And for me it is working. I wish everyone to be pain free as soon as possible because I know this surgery is NO JOKE!

I am at day 7 after TKR and the pain is just subsiding, my whole leg blew up and was as hard as concrete that left me in excruciating pain yet all the experts kept telling me I had to bend my knee😩 that wasn’t going to happen until all the fluid drained away, which thankfully is happening now after 4 days, I had epidural for surgery which meant I had no pain whatsoever and coming out of surgery thought this was great however when that wore off I had the self help fentynol machine which took the edge off the pain u til in the middle of the night they had to replace the empty but they did not hook it up right so o lay a small fraction was getting through as was picked up by change of shift nurse❤️👍 4 hrs after that they took me of it and put me on 2 oxycontin which did nothing to relieve the pain, day two go home and take panamax , but i’m still alive😂and pushing on.

Thanks doc! You sound compassionate and knowledgeable and I BELIEVE you. Especially the part about a good support system. My wife is literally an angel and I can’t even imagine doing this without her. I will do my best. Just 1 week out right now and boy is it painful, but I know there’s a light at the end of the tunnel. Bless you for this.
