Is there a device to help bend and straighten the knees?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: One is called DynaSplint. Several brands on the market. These are commonly used for stiff knees after a surgical procedure to help them get motion back when it seems to be taking too long or everything else has not worked.
