Knee Problem

Asked for Female, 59 years

My mother went through Total Knee Replacement. She can easily bend the knee but can not straighten it or put full weight. I read online about it and it was a common scenario. The doctor recommended increasing water intake. But she doesn't like the increased visit to the washroom. Can you suggest something that would help her?
