Replacement Surgery is only for Older People<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is a common misconception that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/patialaheart.com\/orthopaedics.php\"><b>knee replacement surgery<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is only for older people. Knee problems can affect people of all ages, from athletes to people with medical conditions. In fact, knee-related issues in younger people are rising due to factors like obesity, injuries, a sedentary lifestyle, and arthritis.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Age is not the sole criterion when deciding the candidacy for knee replacement surgery. Instead, the decision to undergo knee replacement surgery is based on various factors, including the severity of the problem, the extent of pain and discomfort, and how it impacts the patient\u2019s quality of life. Knee replacement surgery is recommended for people with severe knee problems that haven\u2019t responded to other treatment options like medication, lifestyle changes, and physical therapy.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size: 30px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Myth_2_Knee_Replacement_Surgery_is_a_very_Risky_Procedure\"><\/span><b>Myth 2: Knee Replacement Surgery is a very Risky Procedure<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is a common myth that knee replacement surgery is a very risky procedure. While all surgeries carry some risk, knee replacement surgery has a very low complication rate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some risks associated with knee replacement surgery or any other surgery may include infection, blood clot formation, implant failure, or nerve damage. However, these risks are rare and can be minimized with proper pre-operative preparation, surgical technique, and post-surgery care.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thanks to modern surgical techniques and technological advancements, the risks associated with knee replacement surgery have been significantly reduced. Techniques like computer-assisted or robot-assisted surgeries have improved accuracy by reducing the risk of implant failure.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size: 30px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Myth_3_The_Success_Rate_of_Knee_Replacement_Surgery_is_very_Low\"><\/span><b>Myth 3: The Success Rate of Knee Replacement Surgery is very Low<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is another very common misconception about knee replacement surgery. In fact, knee replacement is a safe and effective treatment option for damaged, diseased, or worn-out knees. The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/patialaheart.com\/orthopaedics.php\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">success rate of knee replacement surgery<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is 95%, and 85% of artificial knee implants work even after 20 years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The success rate of knee replacement surgery largely depends on the severity of the problem, the patient\u2019s overall health, post-operative care, and the quality of implants.<\/span><br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"new-cta-btn\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/patialaheart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/calendar-1.png\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/patialaheart.com\/contact-us.php\">End knee pain for good.

Knee replacement surgery should not be delayed as waiting too long to undergo surgery can lead to additional complications and a longer recovery time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In many cases, delaying TKR surgery can result in further damage to the joints, making the surgery more complex and reducing the chances of success. Delaying surgery can also result in prolonged pain and limited mobility, reducing the patient\u2019s quality of life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hence, it is important for people with chronic knee issues to consult an experienced orthopedic surgeon to evaluate the patient\u2019s condition and overall health to determine the best course of action.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size: 30px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Myth_5_Knee_Implants_dont_Last_for_more_than_10_Years\"><\/span><b>Myth 5: Knee Implants don\u2019t Last for more than 10 Years<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a myth based on outdated information. In the past, knee implants were made of materials susceptible to wear and tear, which resulted in shorter lifespans. However, with advancements in medical technologies, knee replacement components are made from highly durable materials, such as metal and ceramic, that can last for decades with proper care and maintenance. In fact, over 85% of people experience successful outcomes with knee replacement that last longer than 20 years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The lifespan of a knee implant depends on various factors, including the patient\u2019s age, weight, activity level, and overall health. In addition, following post-surgery instructions and attending follow-up appointments with the orthopedic surgeon can ensure the longevity of knee replacements.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size: 30px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Myth_6_Knee_Replacement_Surgery_is_very_Expensive\"><\/span><b>Myth 6: Knee Replacement Surgery is very Expensive<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the <\/span><b>cost of knee replacement surgery <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">may be a concern for many patients, it is important to understand that <\/span><b>cost of knee replacement surgery in India <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is less than in other countries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The cost of knee replacement depends on various factors, such as your location, the severity of the damage, the type of procedure, your overall health, and the type of prosthesis being used.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size: 30px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Myth_7_People_with_Diabetes_or_Hypertension_or_Heart_Ailments_cannot_undergo_TKR\"><\/span><b>Myth 7: People with Diabetes or Hypertension, or Heart Ailments cannot undergo TKR<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is no longer a problem to undergo surgery if you have high blood pressure or heart problems. Every patient undergoing a replacement surgery now receives a detailed pre-anesthetic checkup. Several tests (Echocardiography, Dobutamine stress echocardiography, Thallium stress echocardiography, etc.) are conducted before surgery to assess cardiac function.\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In contrast to untreated heart disease patients, people with treated heart conditions (such as stenting or bypass grafts) are better candidates for surgery. Knee replacements can improve one&#8217;s health and help manage diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease, as one can walk without pain and walk for long distances if needed.<\/span><br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"new-cta-btn\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/patialaheart.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/calendar-1.png\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/patialaheart.com\/contact-us.php\">Don&#8217;t suffer from knee pain.

However, with modern-day pain management techniques and proper care, patients can return to normal life within a few weeks of surgery. It is important to follow the post-operative instructions given by the surgeon and attend physical therapy sessions to aid the recovery process.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size: 30px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Myth_9_You_cannot_Drive_after_Knee_Replacement_Surgery\"><\/span><b>Myth 9: You cannot Drive after Knee Replacement Surgery<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is another common myth that knee replacement surgery hinders a person\u2019s ability to drive a car. In fact, driving a car can become easier after the surgery as you will have better mobility.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, orthopedic surgeons recommend patients wait until their progress has been evaluated before resuming driving. Generally, patients can resume driving within 6 to 8 weeks of driving, but the time frame may vary depending on individual recovery.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size: 30px;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Myth_10_Both_Knees_cannot_be_Replaced_at_the_Same_Time\"><\/span><b>Myth 10: Both Knees cannot be Replaced at the Same Time<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The orthopedic surgeon will evaluate the patient&#8217;s overall health to determine whether the patient should undergo one knee replacement or both at the same time. In fact, there are many benefits of having both knees replaced at the same time, such as<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">shorter hospital stays<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">recovery time will be the same for both knees<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">reduced surgery expenses\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">physiotherapy for both knees will be at the same time<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Knee replacement surgery can be life-changing for people suffering from chronic knee pain and limited mobility.
