Sciatic Nerve Pain After a Partial Knee Replacement
Posted: 07-11-04 23:27pm

Has anyone out there experienced sciatic nerve pain shortly after a knee replacement? I had a right partial knee replacement 4 weeks ago and have been having sciatic pain down my right side. Has anyone else had this experience? How did you deal with it?

hi contessa, I had a total knee done august 03,i started receiving sciatic nerve pain about 8 months ago. I am had pain killing injections, about 6 weeks ago, but pain is now back as before. I believe my posture has changed due to the problems I am having with the knee and will remain until knee is repaired. Knee pain is very bad, looks like an infection, which I hope will soon be fixed.
