Total Knee Replacement

Our knee joints bare the brunt of our daily activities. Healthy knee joints are imperative to overall mobility, and even the slightest pain and inflammation can affect comfort levels while walking, standing, sitting, or even lying down.

While nearly everyone may experience knee pain from time to time, if you’ve been suffering from any of the following symptoms, it might be time to come in and learn more about a total knee replacement by the skilled team at Carolina Orthopaedic Clinic in Durham:

• Severe pain that puts limits on your everyday activities
• Moderate or severe knee pain while resting, day or night
• Chronic knee inflammation and swelling that does not improve with rest or medications
• Knee deformity
• Knee stiffness
• Failure to obtain pain relief from nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as aspirin and ibuprofen
• Failure to substantially improve with other treatments such as cortisone injections, physical therapy, or other surgeries
