FAQs
When should I be thinking about getting knee replacement surgery?

What does one experience with severe arthritis?
If a person experiences constant joint pain, swelling, stiffness, and has difficulties in moving and performing daily tasks, then that person may have an advanced form of arthritis, which definitely requires a specialist’s consultation.
Should I go for spine surgery if I have a slipped disc?
Neck or back surgery is only advised in cases where the patient has tried all the conservative treatments, and they have not worked.
Moreover, the patient has to have severe nerve compression that manifests itself through leg pain, numbness, or weakness.
What is arthroscopy?
Arthroscopy is a surgical procedure done with minimal invasion to the body, which means that only a few small cuts are made on the skin. It is a technique of medical treatment where the joints are inspected, and the problems in joints are treated through incisions made in the skin that are very tiny, resulting in less pain and a faster recovery.
What is the duration of the recovery period after a joint replacement surgery?
Many people can stand up and take a few steps in a matter of days, and if they do follow with correct physiotherapy and rehabilitation, they can be fully recovered within a month or six weeks.
