Say “No” to knee Replacement Therapy

Don’t jump into a conclusion before reading the following article.

REASONS FOR SURGERY — Total knee replacement is an elective surgery. It is usually considered when other, non-surgical methods of treatment (i.e., activity modification, weight loss, medications and injections) have failed to relieve arthritis-associated knee pain. Candidates for total knee replacement should also have an x-ray evidence of advanced arthritic changes to the knee. Examples of patients who should not undergo the procedure include those with active infection in the knee or anywhere in the body, poor circulation, or neurological disease affecting the extremity.

Total knee replacement is a commonly performed surgical procedure that can benefit certain patients who have tried other, non-surgical treatment methods (including using knee braces or shoe inserts, as well as medication, Ayurveda & yoga) without success. A candidate for total knee replacement will be evaluated by a healthcare provider prior to surgery. This evaluation includes a review of the patient's symptoms and medical history, a physical examination, x-rays and laboratory tests, and a thorough discussion of the risks and benefits of the procedure as well as any alternate options.
