Knee Replacement Surgery

If you are affected by knee problems such as knee replacement problem , then its impossible for you to perform simple activities such as walking stairs, etc. The knee is made up of the lower end of the thighbone (called as femur), which rotates on the upper end of the shin bone (tibia), which slides in a groove on the end of the femur.

One of the most common cause of knee pain is arthritis.The cartilage which cushions the bones of the knee softens and wears away the knee pain. A knee fracture can cause knee ligaments and may damage the articular cartilage over time, causing knee pain and limiting knee function.
