Hey Bob and Brad! So I had a knee replacement a year ago, and having your videos that answered most of my questions and gave great advice and exercises was a godsend. Really really appreciate what y'all do, and I have recommended your channel to others. My knee is doing great, and I am sooooo glad I got it done. And again, your videos helped me through the pain and agony of the first few weeks, so thank you, thank you, thank you!
And Bob, I am truly saddened by the ataxia. My thoughts are with you and I wish you the very best in dealing with it. Much love being sent your way.
Glad to see you're doing well!
Thanks!
I love you guys. Your introductions (to what you are going to cover) are a riot! Totally crack me up ! Humor and education. You guys really are the best!!
Thanks 😊
I watched and rewatched so many of your videos prior to and post my TKR. I promise, it helped me so very very much along with my physical therapists. I am nine weeks post surgery, and am very happy to live life pain free from the arthritis and strong enough to get back to my gardening, painting and life. I appreciate all I learned from y’all! Ps…the first two weeks are no joke!😫😫
That’s great to hear 😀
God bless physical therapists! I had a TKR 4 years ago. Surgery on 6/1, back in the classroom full time on my feet 8/1. My therapists were the best, and as long as I followed their directions things went well!
Love your content - always professional advice with a light bit of humor. Keep up the good work.
Had both knees done over the past 6 months. (Jan and March) You never experienced pain till you do them. Right knee came back fast. Left knee is still struggling..one thing that happened is that when you get you knees done you begin to walk straight. I walked crooked for 20 years. Now that you walk straight it changes you back posture. At five months my back tweeked and put my back in a lot of pain. But it’s getting better now I’m working on getting my back through therapy. I agree with you about the pain meds. Take them ASAP. They load you up in the hospital, but after 24 hours they are done. Get ahead of the pain. Also, you are going to need someone to take care of you. You can’t do it alone. Really, you are going to struggle getting out of bed. One side effect of pain meds is that you become back up, constipated. Need to take stool softener and laxative ASAP. If not, you are going to poop pine cones. Finally, got to realize that it going to take awhile to get back no normal. I thought it would be 2-3 months. Now I’m thinking 9-12 months..
Thank you for sharing this
Bob's and Brad's humor is something I sincerely appreciate right now, lying in bed icing my knee after TKR. There are too many scary super-serious videos on this subject for my taste. Thanks!
Bob, heartfelt well wishes to you. I have watched your videos for years. You are a gem on this earth. :)
I was scheduled for THR but following prehab have made such a massive improvement as a consequence, I'm delaying surgery. My knees are in bad shape too, so now I'm going to try the TKR prehab to see if I see a similar improvement. Huge thanks because you guy's have made so much difference to my mobility!
Wow that’s great! We like to avoid surgery if we can and it sounds like you’re doing a fantastic job 😃
Awesome! Keeping them healthy is just as much work as going through the operation and that rehab too I'm sure...
@@joseenoel8093 Absolutely and small things can make a huge difference in my experience. Often it's finding that one stretch or strengthening move that unlocks things or strengthens a vulnerable area. From there it's a case of working on overall flexibility and strength in the leg and hips. I only do 2, 10 minute sessions a day and the return is saving me from hip surgery and hopefully knee surgery too if I can find the magic combination to help them. My knees don't take kindly to a lot of the moves that theoretically should be good for them... I'll keep trying though
Thank you so much! Great pre-surgery tips that can be used by anyone. Both of you explain important medical concepts in language that everyone can understand. Keep up the good work!
I'll be having a total knee surgery in a few months and you've reminded me that I have things to plan for at home and exercises to start before surgery. Great last reminder, Brad, about working on those key knee and muscle movements of flexion and extension NOW.
Bob, you are always present and providing helpful information... whatever your situation. I'm praying for you. Thanks again to both of you. Now I'm heading off to check out that B&B slider. I think one of the advantages of using it will be that, unlike when one slides a stockinged foot along the floor, I will be able to rest my foot on the slider and not have to tense muscles to hold my foot up off the floor so it will slide. Having those muscles more relaxed will likely allow increased flexion and extension. Take care. From a retired RN.
Thanks for sharing !!
Long term tips would be good. I've had both done 7 years apart and replacement technology has changed. One mistake I made with the first one was getting too much range of motion. I went back to yoga and got back almost total ROM but then when I walked the knee had too much slack and clicked when I walked. Dr told me to cut back range about 20 degrees. Now I want replacements to last as long as possible with the best quality of life. Therapists, some Dr.s, and particularly are only interested in achieving ADLs. I want my best life.
Thank you for that info it will be 2 weeks on Monday since my new knee, the physio pushed me that hard my wound opened up slightly and could hardly walk for 3 days
We have been praying for you Bob, it seems like you have been improving a bit. I’m going to need a knee replacement. My right knee won’t full extended and my foot is turned outside a little. I have lost a lot of power in the leg. What should I do to prepare my knee for the best results possible?
Thank you for a very useful video! Five years ago I had my right knee done. Thankfully, I had a great surgeon and physical therapist. They wouldn't let me out of the hospital to go home until I could successfully master stairs since I lived on the second floor.
I'm so glad you mentioned the pain meds. After going home I tried to not take the opiods because I was afraid of addiction. Then, I learned that I really needed them. When I began taking them on schedule, my recovery time got better, the degree that I could bend and straighten my leg got better, and things improved drastically. While I was icing my knee and in pain I would watch comedies on TH-cam to make me laugh (I think the pain meds made things that much funnier), but I believe the positive endorphins I got from laughing helped my recovery. 😆
Does the feeling come back in that knee? I had my TKR in 2018 and still have a huge area that is numb. Kneeling on that knee is horrible! It feels like electric shocks! Am I stuck with this?
I have a weird side effect after my TKR in Oct 2017. I have never gotten an answer from my surgeon or PTs. I do have great ROM by the way and active. I was left with a tight band feeling in the area under my knee and calf. It feels like I’ve got on the tightest pair of knee socks ever/Charlie horse feeling. The feeling gets worse with exercise. I don’t take pain meds but it is a 24/7 situation, never goes away. The constant aggravation of this has taken a toll on me. Have y’all ever heard of this or have any ideas of what I can do to ease this? Thank you.
I went back to work to soon after my first total knee surgery. Ended up tearing the tendon in the opposite ankle resulting in 3 more months of no work. This time I'm smarter.
My husband is scheduled for left knee replacement later this month. Other knee 6 weeks later. We have a rowing machine at home. Would it help for him to use the rowing machine for part of his PT (help with bending, etc.)? Thanks - Brad, Bob, & Mike

The On-Q pain management pump is a game changer!
It gets the the person through the severe pain period of five days, with zero pain. That helps with mental fatigue very much!
really nice,thanks
after my knee replacement i got a static bike , and yes at first i couldn’t do i first full cycle but i tried twice a day then lots of ice in my brace , but gradually, with my medication i progressed then it took about four weeks before i managed a three quarter cycle and lots of ice , but i think it took about six weeks before i got a full cylcle on my bike but i didn’t push it , but every time lots of ice in my ice brace , but it took three months before i wore my kitten heel shoes , but now three years later i can wear four inch heels when i go out in the evening . but yes i still can get stiffness in the winter .
Thanks for sharing !
Your opinion, which fell shot ito the knee is better, the 3 shots (weekly) or the single one?
How do I get that little slider?
I was placed into an aftercare facility after my right knee was replaced at 60, 8 years ago. After one night, I called family to come pick me up because of the delay in getting me pain medication. Three hours on one occasion, and I was in severe pain. They have to have prescription medication delivered because there is no on-site pharmacy like the hospital. Family didn't know how I would get up the stairs to my bedroom.
After checking out of aftercare and walking down the ramp with the walker, I stopped to fold it up. Dad said, aren't you going need that? I said, no, I just used it so I wouldn't scare them re: liability walking out.
Stopped to get my prescriptions filled, and again had to reassure Dad I didn't need the walker. Went to the supermarket and picked up some food while prescription was being filled. Got home and started walking up the stairs. Right before that walking in, my Mom looked at me like she saw a ghost, walking three-four days after surgery. So glad I had it done. Was bone on bone with Osteoarthritis. Left knee had Osteoarthritis, but not bone on bone. Attempting to avoid it on left knee if I can. Taking supplements, keeping my weight at ideal weight, walking daily, eating healthy, and surfing. Glad I had it done, and 8 years later surfing like I did in my 20's and 30's. Left knee doing fairly good, although diagnosed with a slightly torn Meniscus on by sides of the knee about six months ago. I wear a knee brace when I go on my walk and for surfing. So far, so good.
Sounds like you’re doing great, happy to hear it!
Another goated video
Off topic, but any general advice for someone who has had both quadriceps tendons rupture and are surgically repaired? I tripped over our dogs who were playing and landed on my knees on the hardwood floor, severing both quad tendons. This was years ago and I went through PT and have remained active since, but no longer squat heavy or run (activities I was heavily involved in prior to the fall). Based on experience with your patients, would you counsel patients to use caution in their activities or should I be able to resume my previous levels of activity? Thank you.
Yes we would suggest caution but that doesn’t mean you can’t get back to prior level. Just be mindful of what you can and cannot do and there’s usually exercises to get you where you want to be
@@BobandBrad Thank you so much.
Best advice to all TKR patients... take your pain meds and do the exercises within 30 mins. That is the only way you will do your exercises. I have the max range of motion now and a straight leg. Now, on to knee #2 ☹️
Thanks for sharing
There's no greater beauty than being able to going back to putting your foot flat on the ground (and knowing there's been a months' long splinter in there).
Gee Whiz! You guys are funny and fun!! 😄😄😄
My age is 27 and facing early oa of knee joint what you suggest? If hv video already then share link please...i m a therapist too
I will add this to our to do list
@@BobandBrad thakx..waiting.
I am actually very curious if you could make some quadriceps exercises for people with Ms I think it'd be very interesting and a learning experience for all of us
I will add this to our to do list!
@@BobandBrad Thank you kindly
Talk to your fellow doctors. My doctor tried to take me off narcotics after a week😑 He got an ear full, to say the least.
❤️ from Norway ☺️
I swear some of this video I could verify to be true. The part where you described what they do in OR to your knee had me dying. My therapist was telling me I had the ROM way ahead and I should still be taking at least 1 pain pill before pt. She goes you know they take a hammer and whack it.
If I would of had my right knee replaced first there never would of had a left knee. What got me is the feeling I needed to pee, too late…already running down leg. Moved my recliner right outside the bathroom still too late. No matter how much colace I took got so constipated I was pleading in pain. 2nd knee was on it, got magnesium sulfate. Only needed once and done.
Unfortunately, I have no stability. I stood up last week took one step lost my balance. In that second I thought knees can’t hit cement so I whirlybirded by arms fell sideways into coffee table which tossed me right into footstool to the ground palms hitting. If you picked broken bones for 500, you win.
Results off fall…right, broken radius distal end, sprain left wrist. Large hematoma left thigh. Brush burned ankle. I was to get a heart catheterization scheduled this week now not a good brachial artery. Can’t get my facets worked on due to heart blockage. And lastly re-injured my rotator cuff and bicep tear.
Tomorrow I see orthopedic doctor and start all over. I can’t use my cane because no grip in my hand. It’s
going to be a hot hard long walk into dr office from parking lot. The only time they could fit me in was within 15 minutes of my husband’s cardiologist appointment in another part of town.
My daughter and 3 year old grandson are flying down here next week to help cook. Tired of air fryer food. Lol
Oh I bet this one's a fave to make!
Yep!
(Because so many (will) need help... 🙋)
That go for a half knee replacement also?
Dear can I do this experience
I had been having issues with my speech lately, like the word doesn't come out correct. :(
I HAD MY KNEES AND ONE ANKLE REPLACED IN MY 30'S. IN 2017 I HAD A SLIP AND FALL ON AN ICY SIDEWALK AND BROKE MY LEFT KNEE REPLACEMENT AND LEFT ANKLE REPLACEMENT. IN 2019 I FELL ON A
3 INCH SIDEWALK RISE ON ADJACENT PADS AND BROKE MY RIGHT KNEE REPLACEMENT. NO PERSONAL INJURY LAWYER WILL TAKE MY CASE BECAUSE.I had pre-existing arthritis and the replacements. Is that not discrimination? I also have hypermobility syndrome and have full range of motion usually 2nd post-op day.
You need to move somewhere there is no snow or ice! This is one reason I live in Florida: when I lived in the Midwest, I'd fall at least once per winter!
We are very sorry to hear this
I use studs on a older pair of boots in the winter in New England.
Anybody have knee replacement and can still play sports? Or is this the end of the road and just designed to keep you walking? I play basketball and baseball and I am 55. But this knee is taking me down now.
I opted my knees ACL
Best of luck
I just found out I need both knees replaced. 😔
Get to the point. You talk too much!
You two drunk?
Please read the description a little ways down about Bobs condition.
