Why is my lower right leg black and blue swollen after kne replacement several months later 13 doctors in ca do not have answer i m in a lot of pain ?

Need workup: Mri may be of help to diagnose the problem. Swelling can be the result of the lymph channels which have been overworked due to the knee replacement, it doesnt explain the discoloration. Consider use of a support hose to try and reduce the swelling.
