Im at 5 1/2 weeks after tkr. I have done everything I was told. I have hit a block in the flexion of 103 degrees . Pain is bad after 30 minutes of walking about. Im getting discouraged. Has anyone had a road block of flexion and overcome it without manipulation. Its just very stiff. Will it loosen up over time. Im running out of short term disability, and my job is requires walking all day And climbing. Im at my witts end.

I am 14 wks out but at 10wks l started going backwards...flexion went to 85...l had to have manipulation under anesthesia. It went well and l am at 105 now but pain at night is horrible. I am 2 wks post manipulation and glad l did it. Just have to deal with swelling and build my quads back up. Hoping l am on my way to full recovery..
