What is Total Knee Replacement?

Total Knee Replacement (TKR) is a highly effective surgical procedure designed to relieve chronic knee pain, restore mobility, and improve overall quality of life. It involves replacing the damaged or worn-out surfaces of the knee joint with artificial implants, allowing patients to move freely without discomfort.

Why is Total Knee Replacement Required?

Severe knee pain due to osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or post-traumatic arthritis
Stiffness and limited mobility despite medications or physiotherapy
Difficulty in performing routine activities like walking, climbing stairs, or sitting cross-legged
Pain that interferes with sleep and daily quality of life

Procedure of Total Knee Replacement

1. Before Surgery

2. During Surgery

A small cut is made in the front of the knee.
The damaged bone and worn-out cartilage are carefully removed.
Artificial parts (prosthetic implants) are fixed in place to form a new smooth knee joint.
These new parts allow the knee to bend and move more easily.
Finally, the cut is closed with stitches or staples.

3. After Surgery

You are closely monitored and given medicines to manage pain.
Gentle knee exercises are started within a day or two to restore movement.
Physiotherapy plays a key role in recovery and helps strengthen the knee.
Most patients are able to walk with support in a few days and gradually return to normal activities within weeks.
