I had arthroscopic knee surgery on jan. 16 i have since developed a rash on my leg that hurts when pressure is applied to that area. should i worry?

Leg rash: What part of leg has rash? Near the knee? Is it red & hot as well as tender? Any fever? See orthopedic surgeon who performed arthroscopy for evaluation to rule out joint infection or cellulitis at puncture sites.
