Knee Surgery
Pain, stiffness, swelling, and instability of the knee can make everyday tasks like walking and climbing stairs difficult.
Certain procedures can rebuild your knee joint after arthritis, injury, or years of wear and tear.
Oasis Orthopedics in Tijuana, Mexico, can alleviate your pain and improve your mobility with knee surgery.
How Can Knee Surgery Help?
Knee surgery can repair the structure of the knee, alleviate pain, and improve your ability to move. You may be a good candidate for knee surgeries like joint replacement if you are experiencing:
- Damage from an injury
- Pain throughout the day, even at rest
- Stiffness and swelling
- Instability
- Changes in body alignment
- Difficulty performing tasks like walking and standing up
- Damage from arthritis
- Pain from arthritis
Our Tijuana, Mexico, surgeons commonly perform operations like knee arthroscopy, knee replacement, and total knee replacement. During a consultation they can examine your knee joint and determine if knee surgery is right for you, or if you need a different treatment, such as ACL surgery or hip surgery.
Exploring Candidacy For Surgery
Surgery such as knee replacement may be a good option to alleviate knee pain and other symptoms if you:
Have Tried Other Options
Our surgeons in Tijuana, Mexico, may recommend nonsurgical treatment first. Many patients find success through pain medication, physical therapy, and weight loss that can reduce pressure on the knees. However, if you've tried these nonsurgical methods with little success, we may recommend surgery.
Are in Good Health
Patients must be healthy enough to undergo surgery and recover from it. During your consultation, be sure to tell your surgeon about any medication you're taking and any medical conditions. We also recommend not using nicotine products in the months leading up to your surgery and for several months after.

Knee Arthroscopy Minimally Invasive Knee Joint Repair
This minimally invasive orthopedic procedure can diagnose and treat a wide range of knee problems. During this procedure, a small incision is made in the knee and a camera is inserted. This allows your surgeon to get a better look at the cartilage, ligaments, bones like the patella (kneecap), and other knee structures to diagnose your condition. Your surgeon can then make more small incisions through which to insert surgical tools to treat conditions like inflammation, fractures, and soft tissue injuries of the knee joint.
Though knee arthroscopy can be a good way to treat issues with the ligaments, cartilage, and bone, it isn't always the best treatment for osteoarthritis. For this, we may recommend knee replacement.
Results After Surgery
After knee replacement or total knee replacement, patients typically experience reduced or eliminated pain, improved mobility, and overall better quality of life. Typically, knee replacement implants last 15-20 years, but you can expect general wear and tear over time. When it's time to replace your knee implants, orthopedic surgeons can perform knee revision surgery.
