🔷 What is Total Knee Replacement?
Total Knee Replacement is a surgical procedure where the damaged surfaces of the knee joint are replaced with artificial implants. It is recommended for patients suffering from severe arthritis, joint degeneration, or chronic knee pain that does not respond to non-surgical treatments.
🔷 Common Reasons for Knee Replacement:
Osteoarthritis (age-related wear and tear)
Rheumatoid arthritis
Post-traumatic arthritis (after injury)
Difficulty walking, climbing stairs, or doing daily activities
Persistent pain even at rest or during sleep
🔷 Signs You May Need a Knee Replacement:
Pain not relieved by medicines or physiotherapy
Stiffness and swelling in the knee
Bowed legs or visible deformity
Reduced mobility and independence
🔷 Conservative (Non-Surgical) Options First:
At A Cure Clinic, we always try non-surgical methods before suggesting surgery:
Pain medications
Physiotherapy
PRP injections
Activity modifications
Weight management
Assistive devices (knee braces, walkers)
🔷 What Happens During the Surgery?
Damaged cartilage and bone are removed
Metal implants are fixed to the bone
A smooth plastic spacer is inserted between metal parts for smooth movement
Surgery typically lasts 1–2 hours
🔷 Recovery After Knee Replacement:
Hospital stay: 3–5 days
Walking starts within 24–48 hours
Full recovery: around 6–12 weeks
Physiotherapy is essential for best results
🔷 Benefits of Knee Replacement:
Significant pain relief
Improved mobility and quality of life
Long-lasting results (implants last 15–20 years)
