Individuals who have previously undergone knee joint replacement surgery may still experience pain. These cases are often more complicated than those involving native joints and require assessment by a specialist trained in revision (re-do) surgery, such as Mr. Dan Arvinte.

Various factors can contribute to pain in a replaced knee, including infection, instability, stiffness, soft-tissue impingement around the knee, peri-prosthetic fractures, and aseptic loosening. A comprehensive medical history, thorough clinical examination, and appropriate imaging can help determine the cause of the pain and rule out issues associated with other joints or different areas of the body.

Revision (re-do) surgery might be necessary. This type of surgery is more extensive than primary knee replacement and carries higher risks and less predictable outcomes. Mr. Arvinte will guide you through each step and support you in the decision-making process. The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons offers a helpful guide on revision (re-do) surgery:
