When should you undergo knee replacement surgery?
If you have been suffering from knee arthritis or other knee injuries, your knee replacement surgeon would have probably already tried non-surgical treatments before suggesting you a knee replacement surgery. Orthopedic surgeons usually do not recommend knee replacement until other treatment options have failed to provide relief. Your knee replacement surgeon may suggest you consider knee replacement when the knee problems diminish your quality of life or if the condition is worsening. This may include-
- Severe complications arising due to the condition
- Knee deformity which limits the joint motion and causes disability
- Pain or stiffness in the knee that significantly limits regular activities
- Severe or constant knee pain occurring even when at rest
If resting and nonsurgical treatments have failed to provide relief, you should consider a knee replacement surgery to prevent any further complications and resume your regular life without any knee pain.

Suffering from degenerative knee disease? Our knee specialists are here to help
Degenerative knee joint disease, also known as OA (osteoarthritis), is the most common type of knee disease. Degenerative joint disease commonly occurs in the knee joint, hip joint, hands, and the spine.
Degenerative joint disease typically occurs with aging when the cartilage cushioning the bones breaks down and the bone surfaces are exposed and rub-down together, causing friction. This friction may cause general irritation and the joint region may become inflamed and painful, resulting in a loss of motion in the knee joint. Other complications of degenerative joint disease may include development of bone spurs around the affected knee or weakness and stiffness in the surrounding ligaments and muscles.
If you or your loved one is suffering from knee osteoarthritis or degenerative joint disease in the knee, you may know how severely this disease can affect an individual’s life. The loss of joint movement and function and knee pain can highly impact a person’s quality of life and might keep them from doing the things they enjoy. Our best knee doctor in Bangalore offers the most suitable and promising treatment options for chronic joint pain and other conditions, including joint replacement and reconstruction surgery. Your knee specialist will provide you with all the necessary information about your condition and available treatment options and will answer questions you may have to help you make a well-informed decision.

Types of Knee Replacement Implants
There are different types of knee implants. The main difference between them is whether the implant replaces the entire knee joint or only some component of it. The most suitable type of knee implant suitable for will depend on various factors.
Artificial knee implants basically consist of the following parts-
- A metal cap placed on the end of the thigh bone, after removal of the damaged joint surfaces.
- A platform also called the tibial (lower leg) component (usually consisting of a metal alloy) that replaces the top surface of the lower leg.
- A plastic spacer made up of polyethylene between the upper leg and lower leg component that replaces the knee joint space and meniscus and helps the knee implant move.
There are several different options for knee joint implants available Your surgeon will select the implant during your preoperative visits. The type of knee implant used for your replacement surgery will depend on various factors, such as your age, weight, activity level and severity of arthritis (if present).
