Knee replacement surgery is generally safe, but like any major surgery, it carries potential complications. Common issues include infection, which can occur at the incision site or deep around the artificial joint. Blood clots in the leg veins (deep vein thrombosis) can form, potentially leading to pulmonary embolism if they travel to the lungs. Nerve damage might result in numbness or weakness. Stiffness in the knee can make movement difficult, and sometimes, the implant may become loose or wear out over time, necessitating revision surgery. Allergic reactions to the materials used in the implant are rare but possible. Regular follow-ups with your doctor and adhering to post-surgery guidelines can help minimize these risks.
