Moving away from hip and knee pain
If you have experienced severe pain in your knees while walking, climbing stairs or getting in and out of chairs, or suffer from knee deformities or chronic knee inflammation that fails to respond to anti-inflammatory medications and injections, it might indicate osteoarthritis of the knee.
Besides advanced age, other risk factors for knee osteoarthritis include heredity, gender and history of trauma. Although there is no cure for osteoarthritis of the knee, lifestyle changes can slow disease progression and reduce its severity. Osteoarthritis of knee can largely impair daily abilities and quality of life. However, a number of people live in fear of having a knee operation. Some do not know that total knee replacement surgery is one of the most effective ways to bring patients back to their normal activities in no time.
