Candidate for Total Knee Replacement?
Who decides whether you will have a total knee replacement operation? Curiously enough, you are the boss, you decide!
- Your surgery depends principally on your willingness to comply with the long, demanding post-operative physical therapy and rehabilitation program that follow the surgery.
- All other considerations (your age, disease character, etc.) are secondary.
- The decision to have the operation of a damaged knee joint is a highly personal matter, and only you can make that decision, together with your surgeon.
