When Should You See a Doctor?

Consulting a doctor for knee issues is essential to prevent long-term damage. You should see an orthopedic specialist if:

  • You experience persistent knee pain even while resting.
  • Stiffness makes walking, climbing stairs, or standing difficult.
  • Swelling, redness, or warmth around the knee joint is noticeable.
  • Medications and physiotherapy fail to relieve symptoms.
  • Knee pain affects sleep or daily activities.

Early intervention helps prevent further joint degeneration and may allow for less invasive treatment options.

How knee replacement Diagnoses?

Proper diagnosis is essential for effective treatment. The orthopedic specialist may perform:

  • Physical Examination: Assessing range of motion, swelling, tenderness, and joint stability.
  • X-rays: Reveal joint space narrowing, bone spurs, and cartilage loss.
  • MRI Scan: Provides detailed images of soft tissues, ligaments, and cartilage.
  • Blood Tests: Identify inflammation, infection, or autoimmune causes.
  • Gait Analysis: Evaluates how the knee affects walking patterns and mobility.

Accurate diagnosis ensures the appropriate type of knee replacement procedure is chosen.

Recovery Time

Recovery after knee replacement varies depending on the type of surgery and individual health conditions. Most patients can start moving the knee with physiotherapy within a day or two. Full recovery, including resuming daily activities and walking without support, usually takes 6 to 12 weeks.

What to Expect: Before, During & After Procedure

Patients undergo detailed evaluations, including blood tests, X-rays, and anesthesia assessments. Surgeons discuss the procedure, expected outcomes, and post-operative care. Pre-surgery physiotherapy may be recommended to strengthen muscles.

The procedure takes 1 to 2 hours. Under anesthesia, the damaged knee joint is removed and replaced with a prosthetic implant. Advanced minimally invasive or robotic-assisted techniques are used to reduce tissue damage.

Patients are monitored in recovery for a few hours before moving to their room. Early physiotherapy begins the next day to improve knee flexibility and prevent stiffness. Pain management and infection prevention are prioritized.

Recovery Timeline & Post-Treatment Care

  • Day 1-2: Begin gentle physiotherapy and walking with assistance.
  • Week 1: Reduced swelling, improved mobility, daily wound care.
  • Week 2-3: Walking with minimal support, continued exercises.
  • Week 4-6: Increased knee bending, stair climbing with assistance.
  • Month 2-3: Most patients regain independence in daily activities.
  • Month 6 onwards: Full recovery with normal activity levels.

Post-treatment care includes physiotherapy, medication adherence, regular follow-up visits, and lifestyle adjustments like maintaining a healthy weight to protect the new knee joint.
