I need a knee replacement on the replaced knee from 2 1/2 years ago. It just kept getting worse.Now it has thrown my hips & back out. I truly don t want to go through the agony of replacing the same knee again, but I don t know what to do?Susan
Hello, It is very rare to have such problems. I think you are having either wrong placement of the implant or infection in the knee joint. I would suggest you to show it to orthopedic surgeon and get it x-rayed. If there is wrong implant placement then it can be cured with revision knee surgery. If there is proper size and position of the implant then you can take analgesics and antibiotic for infection. There is no need to repeat surgery then.
