About this treatment
Knee Replacement Surgery is performed to treat severe knee arthritis, joint damage, or chronic knee pain that affects daily activities. During the procedure, the damaged portions of the knee joint are removed and replaced with artificial implants made of metal or durable plastic components. The surgery helps reduce pain, improve movement, and restore quality of life. It is commonly recommended for patients with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or traumatic joint injury.
