The internet can be very deceiving. If you have knee pain, it might say that you need surgery. Knee replacement surgery is a common orthopedic surgery for Osteoarthritis (it is a result of the breakdown of cartilage in the joints and bones over time). This surgery involves removing the damaged part of the knee and replacing it with prosthetic implants (metal or plastic). Arthritis damages the knee, making it hard for you to move. You can also feel pain when walking, climbing, or even sitting.
What is knee replacement surgery?
Knee replacement surgery is of two kinds; total knee replacement (TKR) and partial knee replacement. Among these two types, total knee replacement (TKR) is the most common. Usually per knee, TKR lasts up to two hours. Moreover, there are various factors that are considered about what implant is being used. For instance:
- Your age
- Knee problem
- Level of activity
- Weight
- Previous performance of that implant
Knee replacement surgery is also known as knee arthroplasty. Even though the surgery has a high success rate there are some potential side effects involved. Recovery from this surgery includes:
- Pain
- Rehab
- Stiffness
- Swelling
- Physiotherapy
- Incision marks on your body
Knee Replacement Surgery: The Side Effects/Complications
Knee Replacement is a very commonly done surgery. Like every other surgery knee replacement also has some side effects and complications. Thus, some of the major complications that may occur include: –
