Knee Arthroscopy Effects That Changed Quality of Life🦵
2025.06.24 22:30
This is a discussion about the effects, pain, and recovery period of knee joint surgery, specifically knee arthroscopy.
As you get older, men tend to have shoulder pain, and women tend to have knee pain.
My mother used to exercise well and walk easily when she was young, but as her cartilage aged, she started experiencing knee pain, so she underwent knee arthroscopy surgery.
Knee joint endoscopy surgery
Knee arthroscopy involves making a very small hole instead of an incision in the skin, inserting an endoscope to look inside, which leaves almost no scars. It allows for precise identification of damage not visible on MRI and enables treatment, leading to a relatively quick recovery.
My mother had cartilage damage because the cartilage was so worn out that it looked white and fluttering in the test images.
I had such severe pain that I tried almost every treatment to relieve it.
I tried general medicine, herbal medicine, physical therapy, and chiropractic treatment, but none of them were effective.
At first, the term "knee joint endoscopy" was unfamiliar to me, and I was worried because it was a surgery method I had never heard of before, but since other treatments were ineffective, I decided to go ahead with the surgery.
In fact, the surgery time was not that long, and since it was spinal anesthesia rather than general anesthesia, recovery was relatively quick.
After anesthesia, I experienced a dull pain in my leg, but I was told that it was much better to endure than the pain in my leg before surgery, and that the knee arthroscopy treatment I have tried so far has been the most effective.
After surgery
Knee arthroscopy involves making small holes in the knee and performing surgery while viewing with an endoscope, so there are marks on the knee immediately after the surgery.
The stitches were removed when I was discharged, and after a few months, everything healed without scars. This photo was taken after the stitches were removed.
And after the surgery, a leg brace is used. It needs to be purchased separately in addition to the surgery costs.
During hospitalization, you shouldn't just stay still in bed; initially, you need to move your body while sitting in a wheelchair, and the doctor advised me to walk along the hospital corridor for exercise.
Discharge was done after one week.
What are the effects of knee joint endoscopy?
Mom is extremely, extremely satisfied♡ In the past, when she had leg pain, she struggled so much that she avoided walking exercises and even restaurants with many stairs. Now, she is walking very well and doing great!
The effects of knee joint endoscopy can vary from person to person, but recovery to daily life is generally quicker after the surgery.
And to enhance the effectiveness of knee joint endoscopy, rehabilitation exercises after surgery are truly, truly important.
If not properly managed, the surgery will be ineffective~!
Absolutely avoid intense exercise and instead consistently engage in gentle walking and rehabilitation to prevent muscle stiffness.
If it weren't for this process, the effectiveness of knee joint endoscopy would have been less than half.
According to what the doctor himself said,
They say that saving your knees is more about not using them than about consistent exercise! 😆🤣
The more you save your cartilage, the better.
Therefore, you absolutely do not do exercises like repeatedly climbing stairs or intentionally walking 10,000 steps!
At first, the word "surgery" felt quite intimidating, but my mom personally said that the effects of knee arthroscopy completely changed her quality of life. Seeing the results of the knee arthroscopy with my own eyes, I realized that having the surgery was a very good decision.
So, I cautiously inform those suffering from knee pain about knee joint endoscopy~

무릎을 쓰지 않는 게 관절을 아끼는 방법이군요ㅎㅎ 그래도 운동은 해줘야지요 고생하셨습니다

어머님 수술 잘 되셨다니 정말 다행이에요 🙏 무릎관절내시경에 대해 막연하게만 알고 있었는데, 직접 경험담 보니까 훨씬 이해가 잘 되네요. 재활이 정말 중요하다는 부분도 큰 도움이 됐어요! 저희 부모님도 비슷한 증상이 있어 참고가 많이 됐습니다. 감사합니다 :)

무릎 연골 중요하죠 살살 운동해야 되죠

무릎은 아낄수록 좋다고 하더라고요. 적당히 운동하고 무릎도 적당히 써야 제일 좋은 것 같아요

어깨도 큰 문제이지만요. 확실히 무릎이 중요한 것 같아요. 사람이 안움직일 수 없으니 무릎만큼 중요한 것도 없는 것 같아요. 수술이 잘 되어서 다행이에요
