Treatment for Knee Problems and Injuries

Specific treatment for knee problems and injuries will be determined by your physician based on:

• Your age, overall health, and medical history
• Extent of the disease, injury, or condition
• Your tolerance for specific medications, procedures, or therapies
• Expectations for the course of the disease, injury, or condition
• Your opinion or preference

If initial treatment methods do not provide relief, and X-rays show destruction of the joint, the orthopaedist may recommend total joint replacement for the knee.
