Knee Surgery encompasses a variety of procedures aimed at addressing issues within the knee joint, ranging from arthroscopic interventions to major surgeries like knee replacement. Arthroscopy, a minimally invasive approach, involves using a small camera to diagnose and treat conditions such as torn ligaments, damaged cartilage, or inflammation. More extensive knee surgeries may be necessary for severe conditions like advanced osteoarthritis, ligament tears, or fractures. Common knee surgeries include anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, meniscus repair, and patellar realignment. Knee surgeries are often performed to relieve pain, restore joint function, and improve overall mobility. Recovery times and rehabilitation plans vary based on the type and complexity of the surgery. Advancements in surgical techniques, anesthesia, and rehabilitation protocols have contributed to improved outcomes and shorter recovery periods for many knee surgeries. However, it's crucial for individuals undergoing knee surgery to follow postoperative care instructions, including physical therapy, to optimize recovery and achieve the best possible results.
