I've been having knee issues since the beginning of the year. PT for any part of my body doesn't work for me; it makes it much worse. I've done two types of knee injections, which actually made the pain worse and significantly reduced my mobility. I thought there were still more conservative options remaining, but apparently the next stage is meeting with a surgeon for knee replacement.
Do I understand correctly there is a long recovery time? If you know someone who did a knee replacement, did it go well and do you recommend it for others?
