I had my knee replaced recently. Four days after the surgery, I woke up with swelling from my thigh to my foot. The skin on my shin actually burst from the pressure. The Doctors called it cellulitius but did no culture. All the swelling has gone away except for my knee. I am going rehab but the swelling persists. I am doing cold therapy also. Would a sleeve and compressor (control unit) help the swelling go away?
