I had a Total Right Knee Replacement a year ago. Since my surgery, the pain has been pretty intolerant and the bakers cyst behind my knee is worse than the surgery. Because my knee has been replaced, it is difficult for other doctors to treat me. I have been taking different NSAIDs, but they haven’t helped much. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you! ❤
Hi, Unfortunately this is a common complication post total knee replacement. Compression can be helpful to control swelling. If you have tried lots of stretching to offload the cyst or in some cases, they need to be excised.
@@theirishphysios Thank you for replying! Yes, I do some stretching however, then it seems my hip hurts. I wish you both were in the USA it is hard to find good physiotherapy where I live. I will subscribe to your channel, I’m sure you have other helpful information for me, thank you ❤️☺️
