Frequently Asked Questions – Everything You Need to Know
Find answers to some of the most common questions our patients ask.
Is knee arthroscopy surgery painful?
Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure typically performed under regional or general anesthesia, so you will not feel pain during the surgery. After the procedure, mild to moderate discomfort may occur, which is usually well controlled with medication and appropriate medical follow-up.
How soon can I return to work after surgery?
The timeline for returning to work depends on the type of procedure performed and the nature of your job. For administrative or office-based work, patients may return within a few days. For physically demanding activities, recovery may take several weeks to a few months, depending on healing progress and the type of surgery.
How long does recovery take after knee surgery?
Recovery time varies based on the procedure and the patient’s condition. For simple arthroscopic procedures, functional recovery may be achieved within a few weeks. For reconstructive or more complex surgeries, a structured rehabilitation process lasting several months may be required. Each recovery plan is tailored to ensure safe, optimal results.
