Yes! I had double knee replacements on Feb. 2008, At the time the Dr. told my husband my left knee was too small , and he had a hard time with it. Then I also was found to have a blood clot in that calf. That replacement has never worked right, THEN, 8 weeks after the surgery, I suddenly began to have a very itchy, red bumpy rash from the knee down the front & inside of that leg. and all these years I keep being told that I have dry skin even though I continually apply several types of creams, aquaphor, even steroid creams subscribed for me. Then in Oct. 2012 it began same way on my right leg; below the knee. I have asked & asked if I could be allergic to the glue & commented that I was not asked about Nickel, ( I am allergic to it), but was told that there was no Nickel. I am so frustrated, & with constantly using the steroid cream, my skin is very thin, red & all my blood vessels now are prominent! It is an ever on going discomfort. Do you think this could be from the glue or a bit of Nickel in the Prothesis?

Hi Hope this message finds you in good health. I have gone through your complaints and understand your concern. You are right, the redness may be due to allergic reaction to some type of chemicals used in the manufacturing of implants, A possibility of a low level infection should also be kept in mind. Get a X-ray done to see the wear and tear of implant material. Nothing to worry about. I hope your question has been answered. If you have any follow-up queries, feel free to consult me anytime. Thanks, Take care, God bless.
