Knee Replacement Dad – Should I Buy One?
Anyone know how a knee massager helped with recovery after surgery or injury? My dad got knee replacement 3 weeks ago and he's miserable. Constant pain, can't sleep. His doctor said heat therapy might help but we're unsure. Did massagers actually make his healing better?

My grandfather had knee replacement last year and the first month was genuinely miserable for the whole family watching him struggle. His doctor also suggested heat therapy and we were hesitant thinking it might irritate the surgery site. But around week 4 we got him a proper knee massager and the change was noticeable within days. He started sleeping better and the morning stiffness reduced a lot. The heat gets deep into the joint in a way that a heating pad just doesn't. We ordered from knee massager which had an original model with real heat therapy and a warranty, not some cheap knockoff. Three weeks is still early but heat plus gentle vibration genuinely helps circulation and that's exactly what healing tissue needs right now.
