Advanced knee osteoarthritis occurs when the cartilage cushioning the knee joint has been severely worn away, leading to bone-on-bone contact, pain at rest, night pain, stiffness, and significant loss of mobility. It is graded as Kellgren-Lawrence grade 3 or 4 on X-ray and affects daily activities such as walking, climbing stairs, and rising from a chair. Treatment ranges from structured non-surgical care — exercise, weight management, medications, and joint injections — through to partial or total knee replacement surgery, depending on the degree of joint damage, the patient's overall health, and how much the condition limits daily life. Surgical options include conventional, minimally invasive, computer-navigated, and robotic-assisted knee replacement techniques, each offering a well-aligned artificial joint designed to relieve pain and restore function for 15–20 years or more.
A structured programme of physiotherapy, weight management, pain medications, and joint injections to control symptoms without surgery — suitable for patients who are not yet ready for surgery or are not surgical candidates.
Estimated cost: ~$200 – $500
