About Our Knee
There are many complex joints in the human body. But Knees are one of the most complex, largest, and the strongest joints in the body. It bears the full body weight and protects bones from sudden shocks by absorbing the shocks in the joints. There are mainly two bones in our legs, the thigh bone is called the Femur and the shinbone is called the Tibia. Our knee joins the thigh bone (Femur) to the shin bone (Tibia). The smaller bone that runs alongside the tibia (Fibula) and the kneecap (Patella) are the other bones that make the knee joint. Tendons connect the knee bones to the leg muscles that move the knee joint. Ligaments join the knee bones and provide stability to our knee. For many traumatic and non-traumatic reasons the knee pain starts and sometimes it becomes almost unbearable. In many cases, the Orthopedic medications and physical therapies resolve the problem but sometimes it requires surgeries.

When Knee Surgery Is Needed?

Orthopedists may suggest surgery if they find any structural damage in your knees after diagnosis.
