There are two forms of knee replacement that your surgeon may offer. The first is a total knee replacement and the worn surfaces of your entire knee are surgically removed and replaced with artificial joints. The second is a partial knee replacement. This is performed where possible on injured workers with less widespread knee problems. This surgery consists of repairing only parts of the damaged joint rather than the entire knee joint.
Though a knee replacement is a relatively common procedure, at Atkinson Law Office, P.A. we have found that many doctors perform a knee replacement surgery as a last resort. Often your surgeon will try other methods to reduce pain and inflammation including medications, injections, and physical therapy. If your pain and/or knee instability continues, this surgery often proves to be a successful solution.
