Knee replacement, also known as knee arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure aimed at replacing a damaged or diseased knee joint with artificial components to relieve pain and restore function. It's a common procedure performed to address severe knee joint damage caused by conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, post-traumatic arthritis, or other conditions that affect the knee joint.
Knee replacement surgery aims to reduce pain, improve knee joint function, and enhance mobility, allowing individuals to resume activities that were difficult or impossible due to knee problems.
Recovery from knee replacement surgery involves physical therapy, exercises, and gradually increasing mobility and strength under the guidance of healthcare professionals. Most patients experience reduced pain and improved knee function after successful knee replacement surgery.
While knee replacement is generally safe and effective, complications can include infection, blood clots, implant loosening, or wear of the artificial joint over time. However, advancements in surgical techniques, implant materials, and rehabilitation approaches have significantly improved outcomes, making knee replacement a common and successful procedure for individuals suffering from severe knee joint issues.
