The joint replacement doctors at Orthopaedic Associates say if you’re experiencing the following signs, you may be ready for a knee replacement procedure.

• You're experiencing knee pain that keeps you awake, or awakens you, at night.


• You have knee pain that limits you from participating in activities you enjoy, such as exercising, traveling, walking, or shopping.


• You have tried conservative treatment methods for a reasonable amount of time, and you are still experiencing persistent knee pain.

You and your doctor may consider several other factors when determining whether a knee replacement procedure is the right choice for you.

"Your age, overall health, and bone density all contribute to whether you’re ready to undergo a knee replacement procedure," explains Dr. Theodore I. Macey, knee replacement surgeon at Orthopaedic Associates.
