Knee pain after rod in femur??

Zerk

I broke my femur in 4 places, among other things, and have a titanium rod in it. The rod was inserted from the knee up. So far the knee is not to bad. But its less then 8 months.

I am wondering what to expect long term for the knee. I’ve been using kneeling pads when I am on hard surfaces. Am I looking at knee replacement someday?

Ya I know, I should ask the doc, but there has been so many other problems, this one hasn’t come up yet.

Thanks for help.
