Total Knee Replacement: A Proven Solution for Severe Knee Problems

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), more than 2.5 million people undergo total knee replacement treatment annually worldwide, with India witnessing a daily increase in these successful surgeries. This rise is encouraging many individuals suffering from serious knee pain to opt for knee replacement procedures, enabling them to regain an active lifestyle.

Total Knee Replacement Surgery, also known as knee arthroplasty, involves replacing the damaged surface of the knee joint with metal components to restore function and relieve pain. Post-surgery, patients may initially need assistance with walking, but most can resume normal movement through dedicated rehabilitation.

At Livasa Hospital, Amritsar, Dr. Sukhpal Singh and the expert orthopedic team use advanced technology and modern equipment to provide top-quality care and outstanding surgical outcomes.

When Is Total Knee Replacement Recommended?

Surgery is usually considered after conservative treatments like physical therapy, medications, and injections have failed to provide lasting relief. You might want to explore total knee replacement if you experience:

• Persistent Knee Pain with No Relief: Chronic pain affecting daily life despite other treatments

• Swelling and Knee Stiffness: Inflamed tissue causing swelling and limited mobility, often addressed during surgery

• Pain While Resting: Pain that worsens during inactivity is a common sign of arthritis requiring joint replacement

• Leg Deformities: Bowing in or out of the leg due to joint damage, which can be corrected through knee arthroplasty

Preparing for Total Knee Replacement Surgery

Before your surgery, certain steps are advised to ensure the best outcomes:

• Lose weight to reduce stress on the new joint

• Quit or reduce smoking to promote healing

• Follow specific guidelines on eating and drinking in the 24 hours before surgery

• Avoid high-impact activities like running, jumping, and contact sports

• Begin low-impact exercises such as light walking to improve strength
