Knee Replacement

Patients with chronic knee pain, stiffness, swelling, or limited mobility that doesn’t improve with medication or physical therapy should consider knee replacement. If everyday activities such as walking, climbing stairs, or sleeping become painful or difficult, surgery may offer long-term relief and restored joint function.

There are mainly two types of procedures: total knee replacement, which replaces the entire joint, and partial (unicompartmental) replacement, which targets only the damaged portion. Surgeons recommend the best option based on age, severity of joint damage, activity level, and overall health.

Recovery times vary, but most patients begin walking with assistance within 1–2 days after surgery. Full recovery usually takes about 6–12 weeks, with physical therapy playing a key role. Patients are encouraged to gradually increase activity to regain strength and joint mobility.

Yes, knee replacement is generally safe for older adults. In fact, many seniors report significant pain relief and improved quality of life post-surgery. Proper pre-operative evaluation and experienced surgical teams ensure the risks are minimized, even for patients with coexisting medical conditions.

Patients often save 40%–70% by opting for surgery overseas compared to domestic hospital costs. Despite the lower price, facilities abroad offer high-quality care, certified surgeons, and modern equipment. These savings make treatment accessible without sacrificing safety or clinical outcomes.

Packages typically include consultations, surgery, hospital stay, medications, physiotherapy, airport transfers, and post-operative checkups. Some even offer extended stay for rehabilitation, dietary plans, and travel insurance options. Our team ensures everything is coordinated smoothly before, during, and after your trip.

Yes, physical therapy is essential for successful recovery. It begins within a day or two after surgery and continues for several weeks. Therapy helps reduce swelling, rebuild strength, improve joint movement, and ensure the new knee functions properly during daily activities.

Most patients are advised to stay for at least 10–14 days after surgery to ensure proper healing, attend follow-up appointments, and begin initial rehabilitation. Once cleared by the medical team, patients can travel home safely and continue recovery under local care.

As with any surgery, risks include infection, blood clots, or implant issues. However, when performed at accredited international hospitals with qualified orthopedic surgeons, these risks are minimized. We also ensure all centers follow global standards of hygiene, ethics, and patient care.
