Total Knee Replacement

Total Knee Replacement (TKR), also known as knee arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure performed to relieve pain and restore function in severely diseased knee joints. It is commonly recommended for patients suffering from advanced osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or post-traumatic arthritis when conservative treatments like medication and physiotherapy no longer provide relief. During the procedure, the damaged surfaces of the knee joint are removed and replaced with artificial components made of metal and plastic. TKR helps improve mobility, reduce pain, and enhance the overall quality of life. Post-operative rehabilitation and physiotherapy are crucial for achieving the best outcomes and regaining full knee function.Best knee Replacement in Bandra, Mumbai
