My husband had a total knee replacement by Nguyen 6 months ago. Kstew43 is absolutely correct - Nguyen does NOT want ice on the knee. He recommends heat above the knee (to stimulate circulation). Kstew43 - many people sing the praises of Nguyen, but my husband still has pain, soreness and his knee is still weak. This is 6 months post surgery. He just saw Nguyen a week ago. Nguyen said it will take a year for his knee to heal. So, we are hopeful that his knee will improve in the next few months.
