Описание: How is Post-Operative Pain Managed After Knee Replacement Surgery?
Explained by Dr. Sandeep V. Gavhale (M.S. Orthopaedics)
Knee replacement surgery today is significantly more comfortable than it was in the past, thanks to advanced pain management techniques.
Our goal is to keep the patient mobile, comfortable, and confident during recovery.
✅ How We Manage Pain After Surgery
1. Multimodal Pain Management
We combine different types of pain relief, rather than relying on just one, which reduces side effects and improves comfort.
2. Local Anaesthesia Techniques
During surgery, special nerve blocks are used to numb the area — helping reduce pain for the first 24–48 hours.
3. Safe Pain Relief Medications
Post-surgery medicines are carefully prescribed based on the patient’s age, health, and tolerance.
4. Ice Therapy & Elevation
Regular icing and keeping the leg elevated reduces swelling and discomfort.
5. Early & Guided Physiotherapy
Starting movement early prevents stiffness and speeds up recovery — ensuring better long-term results.
6. Patient Education & Confidence
We explain what sensations are normal and how to manage them, so patients feel relaxed and reassured.
🌟 Result:
Most patients walk within 24 hours after surgery and recover comfortably with proper guidance.
