Knee replacement surgery is a transformative procedure for individuals suffering from chronic knee pain and limited mobility due to conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or severe knee injuries. As these conditions progress, they can lead to significant joint damage, resulting in debilitating pain, swelling, and difficulty in performing daily activities. At Khadke Hospital, our specialized orthopedic team is dedicated to providing comprehensive care for patients considering knee replacement, ensuring they receive the highest quality treatment and support throughout their recovery journey.
The process of knee replacement begins with a thorough evaluation by our orthopedic specialists. During this assessment, they will review the patient’s medical history, conduct a physical examination, and order imaging studies like X-rays or MRIs to determine the extent of joint damage. Based on this comprehensive evaluation, our healthcare team will develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to the individual’s needs, which may initially include conservative options such as medication, physical therapy, or lifestyle modifications to relieve pain and improve function. However, when these methods are insufficient, knee replacement surgery may be recommended to restore the knee’s functionality and alleviate pain.
Knee replacement surgery involves removing damaged cartilage and bone from the knee joint and replacing them with artificial components made of metal and plastic. This can be performed as a total knee replacement, where the entire joint is replaced, or a partial knee replacement, where only the damaged part of the knee is addressed. At Khadke Hospital, our experienced orthopedic surgeons utilize advanced techniques, including minimally invasive surgery, to promote quicker recovery and reduce postoperative pain. Following the procedure, a comprehensive rehabilitation program is initiated, focusing on regaining strength, improving range of motion, and facilitating a smooth return to everyday activities. With a commitment to providing compassionate, patient-centered care, Khadke Hospital is dedicated to guiding individuals through their knee replacement journey, helping them achieve a more active and pain-free lifestyle.
