A regular knee replacement and a robotic knee replacement are identical.

Robotic surgery is a revolutionary advancement in surgery; It is performed by using very small tools attached to a robotic arm.

As the damaged tissue is removed, the surgeon replaces the injured knee tissue with an artificial joint. The distinction is that a robotic arm or other handheld robotic equipment assists in carrying it out.

Hello
You can try Acupressure for your condition which is No Medicine- No Surgery therapy.
Pain in any area is due to blockages in the meridian.
Acupressure stimulator can help release this blockage.
Slight changes in diet will help to improve your condition quickly.
Cupping is equally useful.
Take care

I am trying to find the starting point to getting my knees replaced

Knee replacement surgery is done to replace the damaged joints so patient is relieved of symptoms. The knee joint with an artificial knee called prosthesis made of metal, plastic, and ceramic. It helps to restore function of the damaged knee and relieve arthritis pain. Knee replacement surgery is advised if the pain is interfering with your daily activities and negatively affecting your quality of life. Types of knee replacement surgery Simultaneous bilateral knee replacement - When both knees are replaced at the same time. The primary advantage of a procedure is that there is only one hospital stay and one rehabilitation period to heal both knees. But rehabilitation may be slower. Also these patients may need assistance at home also. Generalized fitness is important here. Staged bilateral knee replacement- Each knee is replaced at a different time. These surgeries are done a few months apart. This staged approach helps one knee to recover before the second surgery. The main advantage of a this procedure is the reduced risk of complications and also requires a shorter hospital stay. However, since this procedure requires two surgeries, the overall rehabilitation period can be longer. Either surgery may involve any combination of total knee replacement or partial knee replacement. The risks associated with this surgery: infection, blood clots, failure of the artificial joint, heart attack etc. Post surgery care, rehabilitation is very important. Hope our answer helps you.

Both knee replacement can be done in one setting, considering the age, heart function, blood reports. If these are found to be in the favourable range, then certainly yes. But if not, then no need to take risk. Dr.Shivanshu Mittal
