When Knee Arthritis Requires More Than Conservative Care
Understand the treatmentAdvanced knee arthritis can make walking, climbing stairs, exercising, and even sleeping increasingly difficult.
Although physical therapy, medications, injections, and activity modifications may help manage symptoms, some patients continue experiencing significant pain and functional limitations.
Total knee replacement may offer meaningful improvement when these treatments are no longer effective.
Dr. Silverstein considers the severity of joint damage alongside your symptoms, medical history, and daily activities to determine whether surgery is appropriate.
Specialized Knee Replacement Techniques
Dr. Silverstein uses a quadriceps-sparing approach for appropriately selected patients.
This technique preserves the quadriceps tendon, which plays an essential role in controlling knee movement and supporting mobility.
His surgical approach also incorporates contemporary pain-management strategies, and outpatient knee replacement is available for qualified candidates.
Every procedure is planned around the patient's anatomy, medical needs, and long-term functional goals.
