FAQs

How do I know if I need a knee replacement?

If you have chronic knee pain that limits daily routines, experience persistent stiffness, feel instability, or have noticeable knee deformities, it’s likely time to consider a knee replacement. Always discuss treatment options with your physician for personalized guidance.

How long will I be in the hospital?

In most cases, knee replacement patients are discharged from the hospital within two to five days after surgery, depending on their overall health and recovery progress.

How much pain relief or increased mobility should I expect?

You should experience significant reduction in pain and improved mobility. Results vary depending on physical condition and adherence to recovery instructions.

How long does the procedure take?

Your doctor will discuss with you all of the details regarding your surgery including how long the procedure is expected to take. Most knee replacement surgeries take approximately two and a half hours.

Is there a maximum age limit for knee replacement surgery?

Consult your physician about your general health and your ability to withstand surgery. In general age is not a factor if you’re in reasonably good health.

Will my recovery from surgery be painful?
