Do I need a knee replacement?
17/04/2019
Knee pain that is severe, affecting your mobility, impacting your quality of life and affecting sleep may lead to the consideration of a knee replacement. Most commonly knees are replaced because of arthritis.
A knee replacement is only usually offered when you have tried other treatment modalities. Exercise has been shown to be very effective at improving arthritic symptoms – this is an intensive course of exercise twice a week for 12 weeks.
