Usually, after the first 5 days, most patients have progressed from a walker to a cane. Then after the first 10 to 14 days, they progressed from using a cane to walking independently.

Some patients continue to use a walker for 6 weeks while others never use a cane and go from a walker to no assistive device in 3 days.

Everyone heals completely differently. Try not to compare your total knee replacement recovery to anyone else's. This is your journey and only you know what you need.
