If it were me, I’d call him and ask why. Maybe there’s a good reason. You’ve gotten opinions from people with experience. It’s your body and you are clearly entitled to ask questions. |

I would call. Better safe than sorry. I just find it strange because most of the people I know that had it, including myself, they started icing right away. Even when the physical therapist called to make an appointment he said make sure your icing. Go figure! Best of luck hope you are pain free soon.

Did you get -written- instructions from the doctor? Did you have a follow-up appointment? If no to -either- of these things, then something is being left out of your situation here. |

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.

It's a great little gadget. We've used it when tweaking this or that, and my daughter used it on her foot after pickle ball. Sure beats an ice bag.
