What are the different types of Knee replacement procedures?
A. Partial Knee Replacement
Partial knee replacement involves replacing only half the joint — either the inner (medial) or outer (lateral) part. Damaged ends of the thigh bone and shin bone are removed and replaced with metal or plastic implants. A partial knee replacement can be an option for younger people with compartmentalized osteoarthritis damage. That means the damage is limited to only the inner or outer part of the joint.
B.Total Knee Replacement
Total knee replacement involves replacing the full knee joint. The entire damaged lower end of the thigh bone and upper end of the shin bone are removed and replaced with metal and plastic implants. The back of the knee cap is usually resurfaced before a plastic implant is inserted.
How much time does it take to recover after knee replacement?
Depending on your particular case, you may be able to start walking the same day, you may stay in the hospital for a day or two after a knee replacement. Dr. Rajeev Verma & team will train you in exercises to strengthen the knee joint as it heals. Full recovery may take a few months to six months or longer.
The advancements in materials and design make knee replacement implants last longer than ever before — 20 years to possibly 40 years. Many people who once worried about getting a knee replacement before age 60 don’t need to be as concerned now about the knee implant wearing out and needing a second knee replacement later in life. However, the actual length of time an individual knee replacement will last depends on several factors, including a person’s activity level and weight.
How much pain associated with Knee replacement surgery?
Dr Rajeev Verma informs that patients do not feel much pain during or after knee replacement surgery with the latest technology and pain management system.
