I had total knee replacement on Nov 22nd. I was finally starting to feel an improvement in my conditioning before surgery but have not been able to swim since surgery. Thankfully the conditioning before surgery really helped me get off the walker and cane quickly. After 2 weeks I was walking free of devices.
I tried to swim today. The flutter kick is killing me. I hear the knee noise and there is lateral pain.
Has anyone on the boards had knee replacement surgery while they were swimming? What did you encounter?
Thanks
2 hip replacments in 99 & 07 have taught me to listen to my body better . PAIN is not s good sign ! Try to work the knee a bit easier for all the time it takes. You do not want to go thru that again !!:badday:
