Primary Knee Joint Replacement in Pune

Primary Knee Joint Replacement (or Total Knee Arthroplasty) is a medical operation that is done to remove the damaged or worn-out surfaces of the knee joint with artificial implants. The therapy assists in restoring mobility, reducing chronic pain, and improving the overall quality of life of patients with severe arthritis or a knee injury.

The patients will be in the safe hands of Dr Milind Lokhande, one of the most prominent orthopaedic and joint replacement surgeons in Pune, and will receive accurate surgical procedures, accelerated recovery, and lasting outcomes.

Ideal Candidates

The surgery is suggested in cases of patients who have:

Severe Arthritis

This is a progressive osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis that cannot be treated with drugs.

Mobility Problems

This is a problem of walking, standing or walking up stairs because of knee stiffness or deformity.

Persistent Pain

Continuous knee pain that does not respond to physiotherapy, injections or analgesics.

Knee replacement Vs Other treatment
Although non-surgical methods (medications, physiotherapy, injections) can alleviate symptoms in the short term, they do not always treat the underlying cause of the problem: damaged joint surfaces. The long-term solution to the problem is a Total Knee Replacement; this method involves substituting the ailment of the joint with artificial parts that are durable and capable of a full range of motion and functioning.
What happened After surgery
The majority of the patients start light movement within 24 hours after surgery under supervised physiotherapy. Pain control, early mobilisation and individualised rehabilitation plans are some of the components of recovery that enable patients to resume normal life a few weeks after.
