Are There New Advances Made In Knee Replacement Surgery?
I had a right knee replaced on Sept. 2016 and now my left knee is feeling & acting the way my right knee did before the replacement. The recovery was the most pain I have experienced in my life. Are there any new advances made in knee replacement surgery?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As per your history, Now a days knee replacement surgery can be done with laparoscoic or robotic technique. They have good results with less complications and early recovery. Just discuss with surgeon regarding all these possibilities. Take care.
