      I had my right knee replaced 18 days ago. I had my left replaced 5 and a half years ago. From day 1 of the first knee, i could bend my knee to 90.

      This time so different...from day 1 I have found it very hard ro get the bend past 60 degrees. My physio while in the hospital knew I was having difficulty and sent me home to keep trying and I am really struggling. it is so stiff and tight. Has anyone any ideas?

        @nithesh what is ur age? the ROM gradually improves in cases of deformities. You need to continue with physio advice and consult a doctor regularly. Hope you will be fine soon. Feel free to send ur x rays and treatment records to harnam.madan@reanfoundation.org , we will advise you of the possible remedies.
