Swelling and Scar Tissue After Knee Surgery.

This is one of the biggest challenges for recovery.

Swelling and scar tissue in the knee after knee surgery and total knee replacement is one of the biggest challenges for recovery and can ruin a good surgery if it goes unchecked.

To avoid long-term problems with your knee you need to avoid swelling and scar tissue. Lisa Alarcon, Director of Physical Therapy, explains the impact of swelling and scar tissue as related to total knee arthroplasty: knee replacement surgery. Lisa has had thousands of her clients at Michigan Community VNA on the X10 Knee Recovery System. They use this new knee recovery technology for all of their total knee replacement patients.

If you lose the battle against swelling and scar tissue you will face limited motion for the rest of your life. In many cases, those with poor range of motion go through another procedure a 1-2 months after surgery called a MUA (Manipulation Under Anesthesia) which breaks through the scar tissue. These patients then have to start their PT from the beginning.
