  • Lateral knee pain after a total knee replacement is common and may be caused by pain at the fibular head. The new knee implant will change the stresses and loading through the tibia.

    Been there and had that pain for the first few months after a TKR. Almost 6 months post op now and it’s gone as everything settles down and gets used to its new life. Knee is 95% pain free and feeling great. Shame about the rest of me😊

    This is exactly where my pain is coming from especially going upstairs before I have the tkr in about a month. Have bone on bone but no pain in mid knee just problem getting up and down motions and grinding sounds that lurch me forward when it catches to sometimes being off balance. Sounds like having the tkr will not eliminate this problem. Currently having peroneal nerve issues mid calf and lateral side of foot.

I asked for god for the strength to get me threw this as I said my nightly prayers and something told me to look at this video.

    Great explanation. The lateral collateral ligament? I know the feeling of pain from the ITB which was repaired on my other knee in 2016. My TKRs are 21years old and I am getting a lot of pain on the lateral side, opposite of leg which had the ITB repair in 2016. This pain has been manageable up to the last six months. I don't think it's the fibula head.
    Originally I was having issues with the Bakers cyst which I felt that pain further behind the knee and in the top of calf, in soft tissue, I treated that with deep massage. This pain is starting to extend up and down on the lateral side and is now starting to catch. Best that I can explain it.

I had left TKR on Nov 19th and 1 1/2 weeks in, I had and still have the most intense pain possible when I get in and out of a seating position. There is NO pain when walking or sitting with legs out straight. I basically cannot bend the leg. My PT was able to eventually get the leg to bend last Thurs., but reverted back as soon as I got home. I see my surgeon tomorrow and we’ll see what he says. Sounds like it is one of the things you describe here. Thanks again!

    Wow Tony, this is exactly the issue for my ltkr after 5 months. I have mild pain at the top of the fibula and that is where the clicking and clunking comes from. I have mild pain lower down between the fibula and tibia plus a bit on the front of the knee at the top of the tibia. No physio backup still in the UK. I have rubbed ibuprofen cream into the joint (not advised anywhere) but it does genuinely seem to make a big difference. Thanks again for sharing your expertise, very much appreciated.

    This is exactly where most of my pain is coming from. The pain increases upon flexion and feels better on extension in this area. Thank you for info on the possible causes. I believe I had a bone spur in this area that was removed during TKR surgery. The leg had become knock knee'd over the years and is now straight. I'm hoping over time the IT band an ligaments will adjust. If there is still arthritis there I hope it doesn't increase. Your videos are so helpful and I joined the FB group recently!

  • @bubblebobble9654
    @bubblebobble9654 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    1. Get up and move around frequently. Don't sit in chairs, couches etc with knees bent at 90 degrees for longer than 30min at a time
    2. Avoid >90 degree flexion of the knee to prevent tearing up the meniscus (avoid child's pose in yoga, deep squats, take care gardening or working in the shop, etc)
    3. Buy a sit/stand desk or desk converter if working from home
    Thanks for the fibula mention! It does seem likely that surgery anywhere around the tibial head might also impact the fibular head in ways which could take extra time for the patient to adapt and even affect movement and loading patterns on the opposite leg. I shared above my three simple tips for knee pain for folks who are in a comparable situation to me. My background is that I was a gym rat into heavy lifting but since covid I became a little sedentary and was sitting 12+ hours a day in a sit only desk and then going on long runs late at night. I had a lateral meniscus repair about 6 months ago and now have some lateral knee soreness that clears up when I do the things above.

    It’s been 4 months since my total knee replacement and my pain is unbearable I explain to my Dr wheee my pain is and he is at a loss for words because mri and X-rays show nothing wrong in this area but I can barely walk most days. If I sit to long and go to get up it is very difficult and when walking it feels as if it is going to buckle. My Dr has scheduled me for another surgery but plans on resurfacing my knee cap which is know where close to where my pain is at. Also to relieve any pressure around my it band. He has not mentioned anything about this area even though I point it out to him all the time. I am nervous about the surgery because I feel he will not find anything wrong especially if he is not looking at the area I am explaining to him the pain is at. This video is the best explanation of where my pain resides at. And I am torn whether or not I should proceed with the surgery even though I know something is clearly wrong in this area or should I delay it and wait it longer.

    What about pain on inside of knee. I have 133 flexion. I was laying on stomach and using rope to pull my leg towards bottom like I did in therapy. This was 2 or 3 weeks ago, next day my calf and inside of knee swelled and was very tinder to the touch, knee got tight also, it has gotten better, but still feels off, could I have damaged medial collateral ligament. I can walk fine, but when sitting it hurts to straighten out leg and getting out of chair. Need info thanks.

    Hi Tony
    I always watch your videos.
    I am getting lot of pain on the sides of my knees just where you mentioned. I have had two surgeries and it’s been almost 9 months and I am still not better. How will this pain go away ? Will it ever go away? I thought after knee replacement I can do all my normal activities and I will be pain free. I feel very depressed and this is affecting my mental well being as well.

    I had continued lateral knee pain after TKR, especially with any twisting movement. Did my own research, that led me to suspect problems with my popliteus tendon. A cortisone injection into the tendon done under ultrasound ended months of pain. But my surgeon never suggested this tendon as the source of my pain; I had to bring my research to him.

    wow, I have not even hand my replacement yet and I am experiencing that pain in the knee that is not going to be done first, but will also be done. I am in so much pain, I am in bed, trying to do excercises to keep my muscles strong but all this information is really freaking me out. I have no choice, I now have RA and the pain causes me to scream and my knees not to lock when I stand. My poor grandsons run to me when I can seem to stand up and they push on my knees to force them back. What can I do prior to surgery to make my surgery as successful as possible. As it is I am going to be in a wheel chair soon as I can barely take a few steps at a time and this is with a very supportive cane or a walker. I keep them under a heating blanket so when I stand from the bed it is not so bad, but it is not without a lot of pain. I am already on pain meds, for a very long time due to a devastating accident that put me into traction for 7 years, every night, so I could function. I am having surgery in Jan and although I push to stand, there are times I just cant. I do not know what to do at this point. I am afraid my muscles will not be good enough to support the replacement. Any suggestions?

I was 6 weeks ahead of pt schedule (per therapist) at time of second surgery. After second surgery this pain began. PA told me they stretched skin over fibula to complete second surgery and fix the problem with the suture. Since then clicking in the knee and continuous pain where you are describing in this video. My pt would massage it to release the nerve and muscle. Lost my pt due to insurance change over. Any thoughts!?

      Does your IT band snap As it glides across your knee during flexion? I have had this issue since the day after my surgery and when it snaps the pain is excruciating. It has not improved and I am Hoping it was caused by the swelling.

I always credited myself with a high pain tolerance but this is miserable.

My question is is it normal to have clinking in the knee almost like., Grinding sounds. I did not see my doctor but I saw a nurse on my first visit after the operation. She said it's not normal to have too much of that noise grinding. So I'm going back to the original surgeon in two more months to see how I progress. What can cause the grinding and clunking sounds?

To answer your question, yes it is normal, but if you don't like you are well within your rights to ask them not to do it.
