Knee replacement surgery can offer relief to those suffering from debilitating knee pain, often due to osteoarthritis. This procedure involves removing damaged cartilage and bone from the knee and replacing them with artificial components to restore joint function.

​

Osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and traumatic injuries often contribute to the need for knee replacement. Patients often experience severe pain, stiffness, and functional limitations in the knee, which worsen over time.

​

A knee replacement may be an option when conservative treatments no longer provide relief and daily activities are affected. Surgery involves removing damaged areas of the knee and installing a prosthetic joint. Patients usually stay in the hospital for several days post-surgery.

​

Post-surgery rehab includes strengthening exercises, range-of-motion exercises, and gradual weight-bearing to regain function and mobility.
