What are the chances of getting bursitis after. total knee replacement and is it common ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fairly: It is not terribly uncommon, especially with the hips. The recovery from a total knee replacement does involve some degree of limping, favoring one leg over the other, and not uncommonly causing a bursitis of the hip. Thankfully they usually it resolves over time as recovery progresses.
