[|Human|] Had one total knee implant, disappointed. Still painful and stiff dispite PT x 3 go rounds. Other knee ready per surgeon. Have had 2 other opinions on my knee surgery and both agreed it was due to my tendency to form scar tissue. Not ready for sx on remaining knee unless the inflammation process is going to cause systemic side effects. What do you think?? Jim
[|AI|]  Hello, I have studied your case and I have full sympathy with you. You should continue with physiotherapy as most patients improve with time. Some may take months. Stopping physio is not advisable at all.  If you have tendency for scar formation than it is not a contraindication for knee surgery. You can go ahead with this if you are having unbearable pain and difficulty in walking. Movements are not lost due to scar tissue. I hope this answer will be useful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions. Thanks
