I am now 20 months post TKR and I am now getting a stinging pain through my knee cap!
The scar also appears to be stinging, has anybody else had this or know what it is?

The kneecap thing? I have no idea. The scar thing, however, could be nerves re-growing, they take a while to do that after an op. When the scar is stinging gently drum your fingertips on the afected area, this stimulates the nerves and helps the re-growth. DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this.

Morning,
Sorry I can't help but I do hope things settle down soon.
If it is causing you problems I would go see your gp, hopefully he will help.
Take care

If in doubt, get it checked out but I think DD's right. I had something similar after at least one of mine. The nerves can take a long time to get back to normal. I was told to gently rub the scar.If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.

Hi Zec
I cannot help you with your questions but I just wanted to say that I enjoy perusing your blog every now and again to see what you are up to and the photos too.
Chin up, I admire your achievements.
