Reclaim Your Steps with Total Knee Joint Replacement Surgery

total knee joint replacement


A total knee replacement is a surgery that might help you to walk without pain again. If your knee is severely damaged or worn out—perhaps due to arthritis or an old injury, this operation can make a significant difference. During the surgery, the doctor will remove the damaged parts of your knee and replace them with artificial ones. 

Here’s how it goes: 

  • The doctor gets your knee ready by cleaning and shaping the bones. 
  • They put in the new parts (called implants) to replace the damaged ones. 
  • They check to make sure everything fits well and moves smoothly. 

With an experienced doctor you may quickly and easily recover from your pain and surgery.
