I have chronic knee pain
The days of saying that a patient has to be a certain "age" to get a total knee replacement are rapidly evaporating. In my office, we evaluate you as an individual. We take into account the x-rays and the signs of arthritis, but just as importantly I as want to know how you knee is impacting you. Are you a laborer who cannot work because of the knee? can you not play your sport of hobby or garden because of your knee? Do you resist simple pleasures such as going to the mall or walking the boardwalk in the summer because of your knee. Those answers, coupled with the presentation of appropriate radiographic findings will guide us to whether it is time to consider the replacement. I believe we all deserve a quality of life and enjoyment and that should not be pushed off for an arbitrary "age" READ MORE
