What you need to know about Knee Ligament Surgery (MCL) in Alajuela

Before you have knee ligament replacement surgery, your movement is restricted and your joint is stiffened and there are severe pain and inflammation. Your every step is painful. Surgery is performed to help you get rid of pain and inflammation. After being operated upon, your walking ability is improved. Pain and inflammation subside. You can again take part in sports after a complete recovery.

The knee joint is a major weight-bearing joint of your body. It is present between the thigh bone and shin bone. Its stability is maintained by a number of ligaments. One of them is Medial Collateral Ligament (MCL). It is also known as tibial collateral ligament. It is one of the most important ligaments of the knee joint. It is located at the inner aspect of your joint at the medial side. This ligament is responsible for the side to side movement and stability of your knee. It is more commonly damaged than lateral collateral ligament. Damage can be due to accidents, automobile injury, sports injury, etc. Overstretching or a hit by a hard object on the side of the knee can cause the tearing of its fibers. It is a painful condition and movement is affected. There is inflammation due to bleeding in the joint. The torn ligament can be fixed by knee ligament replacement surgery.

What's the Recovery Time for Knee Ligament Surgery (MCL) Procedures in Alajuela?

A medial collateral ligament tear can be of three degrees and each requiring a different length of time for recovery. In the case of knee ligament surgery, 6 months are needed for complete recovery. Office work can be started after 4 to 5 weeks. You can return to jogging 4 months after the surgery. 6 months are needed to get back to sports. Recovery time can even be prolonged to a year depending upon various factors such as your environment, diet, physical condition, etc. During the recovery period, you suffer from pain and inflammation for which medicines are prescribed

What's the Success Rate of Knee Ligament Surgery (MCL) Procedures in Alajuela?

Knee Ligament Surgery (MCL) outcomes can fluctuate based on a multitude of elements such as a patient's general well-being, age, injury severity, and commitment to aftercare guidelines. By and large, this operation has a robust triumph rate. Countless patients cite marked enhancements in knee steadiness and efficiency, diminished discomfort, and a bettered standard of living. For medial collateral ligament surgery, the success rate is reported to be 85% to 90%.

Infection and blood clot formation can be one of the causes of failed surgery. In case this operation fails, another surgery is performed. This is called a revision of replacement surgery. This works out but does not give as positive results as achieved by the first successful surgery. You are able to walk without pain. But you cannot do sports again. It might damage your ligament again making it difficult for you to walk. Give yourself time and care for better recovery and to prevent failure.
