Delaying Surgery Has Significant Costs
It’s important to not delay seeing an orthopaedic surgeon to make informed treatment decisions when chronic knee pain impacts daily activities such as walking or going up or down stairs. Why?
- Delaying surgery can lower one’s quality of life even more than osteoarthritis (OA) does on its own, both before and for up to two years after surgery.1
- There is no cure for OA and it is degenerative, which means that the pain and limited mobility can get worse over time.2
