Frequently Asked Questions
Joint replacement is considered when severe arthritis or joint damage causes persistent pain, significant functional limitation, and reduced quality of life that doesn't improve with conservative treatments like medications, physical therapy, or injections. Your orthopedic surgeon will evaluate your specific condition.
Most patients begin walking with assistance within 24 hours. Basic recovery takes 6-12 weeks, with return to normal activities by 3-6 months. Physical therapy is crucial for optimal recovery. Full healing and maximum benefit may take up to a year.
Arthroscopic surgery is a minimally invasive procedure using a small camera (arthroscope) and specialized instruments inserted through tiny incisions. It allows surgeons to diagnose and treat joint problems with less pain, smaller scars, and faster recovery compared to open surgery.
While not all injuries are preventable, risk can be reduced through proper warm-up, appropriate conditioning, correct technique, adequate rest between activities, and using proper equipment. Early treatment of minor injuries prevents them from becoming serious.
