If you are suffering chronic knee pain and restricted knee mobility and you have tried all other treatments such as physiotherapy or steroid injections to get respite from pain and recover your knee mobility but to no avail, knee replacement may be the only option for you. Knee replacement is a surgical process often recommended for patients with severe pain, stiffness and immobilization in their knee joint arising out of osteoarthritis and inflammatory arthritis or several forms of injury. For severe cases where painful symptoms do not respond to conservative, non-operative treatments such as weight loss, activity modifications, anti-inflammatory medications or cortisone injections, replacement of the knee may only be helpful.

During the replacement surgery, the surgeon replaces the severely affected and destroyed part(s) of the arthritic knee with artificial metal and plastic devices called ‘prostheses’.
