I don't have 100% pain. I'm having a knee replacement to gain more mobility. The surgeon says my knee is bone on bone. If I sit in one position for a long time (like two hours in a car), it is very painful to walk. But normally I can walk or bike with stiffness, but no pain. My goal is to be able to walk or bike or dance without having to ice my knee!
