Walking after knee replacement is an integral part of the rehabilitation process. However, there is no set amount that you need to walk after surgery.

Your surgeon will recommend a specific number of walks per day, depending on your individual needs. But, always listen to your body and modify your activity if it feels too difficult or uncomfortable. Consult with your doctor multiple times if needed and find a schedule that best fits you.

One of the most common joint disorders is arthritis. Damage to joints causes arthritis. It can be mild or severe, leading to several other problems, including pain, fatigue, and difficulty walking.

Fracture is another common type of joint disorder. A fracture is a break in the bone that occurs due to an injury. Fractures can occur anywhere in the body, including your hand and foot bones.

These can be serious and require immediate medical attention. An orthopedic will determine the best course of action for you and provide you with information about available treatments.

Here are four questions to ask your surgeon:

• What rehabilitation program will I need?
• What physical therapy will help with the rehabilitation?
• How often will I need to visit the doctor?
• How long will my rehabilitation last?
