Hi
I haven't been around for a while, went to see consultant last week unfortunately I need a manipulation as I still do not have a very good bend. He said if he can't get any degree of bend he will do an orthoscopy. Has anyone else had this done

Many thanks

    I take it that this on a TKR? I dimly remember someone having this done but as they never posted again I presume it was successful. I am still waiting for new knees so can't really help but I would advise going for it. I think they knock you out (which is sensible) and, if you go down that route, I hope it helps. DD

    Hi Lovechoc

    I got threatened with this last year if my new knee didn't bend much more than the 70% upon discharge, thankfully it did....I seem to remember you messaging me at the time so I'm sorry it has come to this and hope it works out for you soon....
    Please update us?
