If you need knee surgery, whether it be an arthroscopic, reconstructive, partial or total knee replacement, North Phoenix Orthopedic Surgeons are highly trained, experienced physicians who specialize in surgical treatment of the knee.

 

The most often treated site by orthopedic surgeons is the knee. The knee is vulnerable to more injuries for different reasons. It may be treated non-surgically, however more severe injuries to the knee could require reconstructive or arthroscopic knee surgery for correction. If your knee is severely damaged by arthritis or injury, it may be hard for you to perform simple activities such as walking or climbing stairs. You may even begin to feel pain while you’re sitting or lying down. 

 

If medications, changing your activity level, and using walking supports are no longer helpful, you may want to consider partial or total knee replacement surgery. By resurfacing your knee’s damaged and worn surfaces, total knee replacement surgery can relieve your pain, and help you resume your normal activities.

 

There is also the option of partial knee replacement, which depends on the severity of your arthritis or injury. You and your physician would make a joint decision on which procedure, a total knee replacement or a partial knee replacement, would fit your needs best.
