We had a very good experience here in 2016 when my wife's shoulder was hurting her. The cab driver took us to the wrong hospital at first, but then took us here. He waited on us the whole time, maybe

You will need a credit card + insurance. Fantastic hospital with world-class facilities and doctors. Most staff members have basic English but I have not spoken with anyone who is fluent in English. M

What you need to know about Knee Replacement in Cancun

Arthroplasty or Knee Replacement is a surgical procedure involving the exchange of a damaged and weakened knee joint with an artificial one. It is commonly performed for different types of arthritic knee diseases such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and psoriatic arthritis mostly brought on by old age. Other causes can be accidents which lead to meniscal tears, joint dislocation, ligament tears, and cartilage damage. Osteoarthritis is the most common cause of knee replacement. Genu Valgus and Genu Varus can also be treated by surgery. Arthroplasty can either be partial (Partial Knee Replacement [PKR]) or complete (Total Knee Replacement [TKR]) depending upon the degree of damage.

The choice to proceed with a Knee Replacement is often brought on by ongoing discomfort and diminished mobility. This Knee Replacement involves a surgical procedure with the intention to diminish pain and revive the functionality of the joint.

What's the Recovery Time for Knee Replacement Procedures in Cancun?

6 weeks are required for complete recovery, however, it may take 3 months for inflammation and pain to subside and the knee continues to repair up to 2 years after the surgery. During the first 6 weeks, you cannot walk properly and experience pain and inflammation, therefore, walking aids such as walkers, crutches, walking sticks, etc. will be required. You can start walking again 12 to 24 hours of surgery with the help of your medical assistant. You can drive again 4 to 6 weeks after the operation. The replaced knee can work for 15 years after which metallic parts wear out and start causing problems. Note that the recovery from Knee Replacement is a gradual process and varies from person to person.

What's the Success Rate of Knee Replacement Procedures in Cancun?

More than 90% of people who have gone through a knee replacement surgery told that they have a tremendous amount of relief in pain and their ability to walk around. 85 to 90% of surgeries are reported to be successful. 60% of these surgeries were undergone by women. The probability of positive outcomes hinges primarily on elements like the degree of injury, an individual's general wellbeing, and compliance with recovery and subsequent care.
