Knee Replacement Surgery, also known as total knee arthroplasty, is a common orthopaedic procedure designed to alleviate pain and improve function in individuals with severe knee arthritis or significant knee joint damage. During the surgery, the damaged portions of the knee joint are replaced with artificial implants made of metal, plastic, or a combination of both. The procedure aims to restore the natural movement of the knee, reduce pain, and enhance overall joint function. It is typically recommended for individuals who have not found relief through conservative treatments like medications and physical therapy. Knee replacement surgery is a major procedure that requires a hospital stay, and recovery may take several weeks to months. Physical therapy is crucial for regaining strength and flexibility in the knee. While complications are rare, they can include infection, blood clots, and implant issues. Despite the initial challenges, many individuals experience significant improvements in their quality of life after knee replacement surgery, enjoying reduced pain and increased mobility in their daily activities. The surgery has become a widely successful option for individuals seeking long-term relief from debilitating knee conditions.
