should swimming breast stroke be avoided for after total knee replacement and also avoided for the other knee just starting with symptoms?

My understanding is that the breast stroke kick should be avoided after a THR. I don't recall anything about a TKR. Presumably, wait until it has fully healed up on the surface then ease into swimming. I'd have thought it could only benefit an arthritic knee but best to ask a professional.
If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving definitely isn't for you.
