Weigh Your Options
It’s important to consider all your options and
explore alternatives to knee replacement surgery. However, discuss the
procedure with your doctor if you’ve exhausted your options or your surgeon
feels that your knee requires a total or partial replacement. Delaying a
necessary surgery can cause additional long-term problems.
