I’m also very active and do CrossFit what is it that you can’t do at the gym at your current bend? I am only two weeks to post surgery on my left and had my right knee done 12 weeks ago. My right knee is only in the 130s but I was doing a lot of stuff at the gym before the latest surgery.

My surgeon sucks too, he told me to see my primary care physician if I need anything else regarding my surgical knee, WTF he did the surgery not my primary

My understanding is that different knee replacement implants can have different maximum ranges of motion based on their design. The implant itself may have a limit on how far it can bend, but things like swelling, scar tissue, soft tissue tightness, anatomy, and pre-surgery range of motion can also affect how much someone can get. That being said did he give you the maximum range for yours? Absolutely advocate. My first knee PT said I wouldn’t get more than 5 degrees more after 12 weeks. Which I gained and got to 140 around 6 months

I’m a therapist. They will never approve this. Dynasplints really are only indicated for post stroke, scleroderma ect. I have been a therapist for 14 years and have never seen anyone use a dynasplint for a knee. Not to be a negative Nancy insurance will not cover it

You said it best! Advocate for yourself!!! I’ve been doing that for months and I know his nurse is annoyed with me!! But 2 mri’s later he’s still telling my my implant is fine. Yes that’s not what bothering me. It’s the mcl and the back of my leg behind my knee where I had an almost 2 month setback. Oh he also said my bend was fine work on strengthening now in pt 😳😳😳😳.

69yrs old, 10 weeks and 145' bend. The Dr can't help you. PT will. Find a PT studio that does athletes. I mean college and professional sports athletes. Mine is a Hockey Team PT.

132 degrees? That’s about as good as it gets. TKR is meant to take pain away and restore ability to do ADL’s. They should have explained this before surgery.

I love that u still go to pt. my dr saw me last wk for 8 wk follow up. told me to go to pt until end of mth. despite being told that my pt the next day said he doesn't feel it's necessary. I'm headed there soon & he wants today to be my last session. But im only at 110° idk what to do. ive done every exercise religiously & i cant get it to bend farther. him releasing me early makes me feel like I'll never get it farther. he says it is due to swelling & that we just can't force it. it is so frustrating. any tips or recommendations? especially now that im going to be on my own without pt

It might be that your insurance feels that range is good enough and won’t pay. Can you purchase one without a prescription?

I keep watching your videos ,currently a knee replacement is in my future as of now my Orthopedic surgeon i see is having me do cortisone shots since Iam not fully bone on bone yet ,Bilateral lateral patellar tilt and grade 3 osteoarthritis .He suggested with having weakness to my left quad to do PT strengthening first as well . But says this will not by any means fix arthritis and a knee replacement will be needed.

When I had wrist surgery my OT met with my surgeon and he went to bat for me with insurance to get it. I’m at 148 with both knees now and I have to agree with you. I go to the gym and road cycle and having more movement is important. My goal when having this surgery twice was quality of life and having more flexion was important to me. See if the Rep can get your insurance to pay for the splint or at least part of it. I hated wearing it but it worked!

I'm 55 and I'm at a 110 on both knees and that's WAY better than I had before my surgery, that's completely fine with me and my surgeon. I'm NOT athletic and don't plan to be! LoL! Yea, your surgeon should be listening to you and your needs and goals. I'm sorry 😞

I can’t imagine any insurance paying for that at this point. Keep what you’re doing.

I get your frustrations-he shouldn’t decide what bend is sufficient for you when you want more!
