I assume you're saying that your total knee replacement has failed. If so, I guess they can take out the old one and replace it with another total knee replacement.

I have worked one many with this type of fracture. You can get back but you will need to work hard. But this type of fracture is part of the joint . Your knee may always be weak and have some pain. I wish you luck

I believe it's 27447.  You want to look under "arthroplasty" and it will also list total knee replacement in the description.\n\n\nI♥♫→mia☼☺†

The price of knee joint replacement surgery is very low in India as compared to USA, UK and Canada. My cousin also got her hip replacement surgery in India through the forerunners healthcare .She is more than very happy with the results. She is totally pain free now. She just paid 25% of the amount she was quoted in USA and is all praise for this forerunners healthcare company.\n\n\nForerunners Healthcare is very famous in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and magazines. I have read a lot of their patient stories also. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low price, as all joint surgery is not covered by insurance in USA or by NHS in the UK. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that your surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.\n\nhttp://www.forerunnershealthcare.com\nHope this helps.

rest and let it heal - absolutely nothing else except time can fix this. 6 weeks of low or no leg work

The chance of re-tearing it again is pretty much the same as is has been for each of the previous injuries. What sort of graft did you have it reconstructed with first time? Second Time? This time? Allograft reconstructions, which are usually what is used for revision (2nd and 3rd times) reconstructions MAY be a little more likely to tear, though the literature does not bear that out at this time. Given appropriate surgical technique, rehabilitation and patient compliance you are at only a minimally increased risk for re-tear simply due to the difficulty in regaining full knee strength and function after multiple major reconstructive surgeries.\n\nWhat is more important is to figure out why you keep reinjuring your knee. There are a number of biomechanical factors that may be predisposing you to injury that you may need to address. This may include muscle imbalances, lower extremity alignment issues and proprioceptive (balance and coordination) factors. This may be the case if you are reinjuring your ACL after a formal period of therapy and an appropriate amount of rehabilitation time. \n\nYou may be trying to return to activity too aggressively, this is a common cause of ACL reconstruction failure. It is important to follow all instructions from your surgeon/rehabilitation team regarding return to activity.\n\nIn a related topic: bracing the knee does not prevent ACL re-tears. \n\nHope this helps, re-post if you need anything else

Two of my patients have got knee surgery in India.One was treated for acl repair surgery and the other for total knee replacement surgery.Both of them are very happy with the results.Their pain and other symptoms due to joint damage have totally gone.\n\nOrthopaedic Surgery is very cheap in India.There is one company that is very famous in India that arranges spine surgery for foreigners in India.They are called the Forerunners Healthcare.I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories.I have also read that they arrange financing for american and canadian patients as some of the  surgery is not covered by insurance.They also have photos pasted of their International patients.You can checkout their website.\n\nThe cost savings are incredible.As a doctor i personally believe that your knee surgery can be easily handled in India as the quality of healthcare available here is simply best in the world.The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.both my patients had gone to India through the forerunners healthcare company.i strongly recommend you to talk to this company,checkout your options with surgery from them.\n\nhttp://www.forerunnershealthcare.com

You should consult an orthopaedic surgeon on the matter. Depending on your level of activity you might need to have the artifical joint replaced in 10 to 15 years. (Kind of a catch-22, the more active you are the sooner the replacement needs replaced) Since you have osteoarthritis somewhat early, there is possiblity of having more than one operation. However, for many with the pain from osteoarthritis, total hip replacement is the best option for increasing quality of life. Hope is helps.

Be sure to talk to your doctor about this.  You may need some physical therapy to strengthen the knee.  If you are not happy with your doctor, seek another for a second opinion.  Life is short and you do not need to be slowed down by this disabling condition.

I have experienced joint replacement and it has helped me tremendously.  The most important thing is to do the physical therapy just as they tell you to.  It is painful but it will be beneficial in the end.  Today they can replace your finger joints also.  I am going to go for that too.  My hands are so crippled and they hurt so bad.  My knees feel much better.  Get them both done one after the other.  I have also had my hips replaced.  You might call me the bionic woman.  Or the million dollar woman if you could see my medical bills!  But you only live once and I wanted to be able to still do things in life.  I do take pain medication on occasion, especially when it is rainy and cold outside.  Mostly I try mind over matter.  There is no cure for this crippling disease so we must make the best of it.

needs to see an orthopedist and they will probably give him a cortisone shot and then physical therapy if there isn't something that needs to be repaired surgically

Well first you have to figure out what type of hamstring you have. Grade 1,2 or 3.\n\nGrade 1:\n-Might have tightness in the thigh. \n-May be able to walk properly. \n-Probably won't have much swelling. \n-Lying on front and trying to bend the knee against resistance probably won't produce much pain. \n\nGrade 2:\n-Probably cannot walk properly. \n-May get occasional sudden twinges of pain during activity. \n-May notice swelling. \n-Pressing in causes pain. \n-Bending the knee against resistance causes pain. \n-Might be unable to fully straighten the knee. \n\nGrade 3-\n-Unable to walk properly without the aid of crutches. \n-In severe pain. \n-Bad swelling appear immediately. \n-A static contraction will be painful and might produce a bulge in the muscle. \n-Expect to be out of competition for 3 to twelve weeks or more. \n\n     After you figure out which one you have here is how to heal it:\n\nGrade 1:\n-Use a compression bandage or heat retainer until you feel no pain. \n-See a sports injury professional who can advise on rehabilitation and strengthening. \n\nGrade 2-\n-Ice, compress, elevate, use crutches for 3 to 5 days. \n-See a sports injury specialist who can advise on rehabilitation.\n\nGrade 3:\n-Seek medical attention immediately!!! \n-R.I.C.E. (Rest, Ice, Compress, Elevate.) Use crutches. \n-See a sports injury professional who can advise on rehabilitation and prevention.

Best bet would be to get in touch with any major orthopedics department at a hospital, or to talk to a personal orthopedics specialist who will be able to find a surgeon to fulfill your requirements.
