Knee replacement surgery is considered when chronic knee pain significantly affects daily life and conservative treatments no longer provide relief. Common indicators include persistent pain at rest, limited mobility, ongoing swelling, knee deformity, and reduced function despite medication, physiotherapy, or injections. The decision is based on symptom severity rather than age alone. A thorough orthopaedic evaluation, including imaging, helps determine suitability. Surgery is a collaborative decision aimed at restoring mobility, reducing pain, and improving overall quality of life.
