Scar Massage after Total Knee Replacement (TKR).

[@sadielaurentiwhitley3762]

I’m a week post op of TKR, and this helped me understand that I can massage once the skin adheres. Today I had staples out so I’ll wait a while. Thank you

[@tadejpeckaj1151]

Thank you for this video. I will use this technique on my scar after hip replacement.

I am 2 months post total knee replacement surgery and have to go for a manipulation under Anesthesia because my whole knee froze up thanks for this video

[@tadejpeckaj1151]

Why? How did scar massage cause your knee to freeze?

[@chiaragerevasi6699]

@@tadejpeckaj1151 It’s not what she’s saying.

[@kashabrown2692]

Why did your knee freeze? I am one week post op & my leg is at 24 percent

[@chiaragerevasi6699]

Very uselful, thank you. When is the right time to do this?

[@teresaspensley5640]

I’ve just read when the stitches are out and the scabs have gone.

[@ebukaubah4579]

I ran an x-ray just yesterday I want to show you the results to tell if m getting better

[@mssurora]

I am 3 weeks post RTKR and still have a little scabbing. My routine several times a day is heat, PT exercises, ice. When would you suggest I do the massage? After PT but before the ice? Or a totally different non heated time? Or? Thank you.

I am still looking for techniques for deeper scar tissue after immobilization due to leg break and now knee has very limited range of motion, but thanks for this.

I’m 2 months after ACL surgery and my scar is tuck to my muscle how long will it take for it to separate after massaging scar ?

[@angelitaedwards8414]

When can you start adding lotion or Vaseline to scar?

[@hugojames85]

Does this work for people who actually have scars as well?

[@TheSparklybarclay]

This is very helpful!

[@ThePhysioChannel]

Glad it was helpful!

[@debbienorris1556]

Thank you!

[@smritivrrajesh]

Can it be done sitting on the bed, instead of a chair?

[@ThePhysioChannel]

Yes of course, that will also work. Thank you.

[@celiaspiropoulos7596]

I give a 15 min massage nightly with young living oils and his scar is almost invisible, lotion o the feet and rub the bottoms.

[@lc5255]

Will this help if you keloid?

[@monicatomlinson5060]

Thank you

[@Keeper31Goalie]

What if the scar is tender to touch

[@ThePhysioChannel]

We recommend an Assessment to check for infection.

[@nealstork9182]

❤. Yes

[@marcus_ohreallyus]

Is it too late to start doing this at week 9 post op?

[@ThePhysioChannel]

No it would be a good time to get started.

[@boruttrost5750]

The "music" at the beginning gave me brain hemorrhage. Otherwise cool video.

[@ThePhysioChannel]

Thank you. Yes we use some different music now

I had knee surgery when I was 19 yrs old. The result was a disaster. UK orthopeadics are rubbish
