A member asked:
Stiffnes after one month of tkr?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Normal: Stiffness is the most common complaint after tkr. Keep working both flexion (bending) as well as extension (going straight ). Straight is more important now.

I agree: This is common. Your physical therapist may be able to decrease your stiffness through manual therapy as well as continuing to focus on range of motion and lower extremity strength.
