I had knee replacement surgery a week ago. How long does it take to get full range of motion after knee replacement?

if the surgery is done well and full range of motion from neutral or zero to functional flexion of 120 degrees or more may take up to three or four months going to therapy at least try weekly.
If all goes well with the surgery about 4 months.But don’t expect full motion it might be limited by 5 or 10 degrees.
The post-op range of motion depends on various factors. Most important is pre-op motion. It determines post-op motion you get. Other factors are post-op physical therapy, pain control, swelling, inflammation, and others.
It's individual, but up to 3 months.
