    The typical recovery time after knee replacement surgery varies, but most people experience significant improvement within 3 to 6 months. Full recovery, including regaining strength and mobility, can take up to a year. In the first 1-2 weeks, the focus is on pain management, reducing swelling, and starting gentle exercises to improve knee movement. Most people use crutches or a walker during this period.
    Between 2 and 6 weeks, physical therapy becomes more active, focusing on strengthening the muscles around the knee and improving range of motion. By this stage, many people can walk with a cane or without assistance. Swelling and bruising may persist but should gradually decrease.
    From 6 to 12 weeks, most patients can walk without a cane and return to light activities, such as driving and walking longer distances. Full knee function isn’t restored yet, but pain and swelling should significantly improve.
    By 3 to 6 months, many people can resume low-impact activities like swimming, biking, and walking without pain. Full recovery, including muscle strength and flexibility, often takes up to a year. Factors like age, overall health, and adherence to physical therapy can impact recovery, and regular check-ups with your surgeon will help track your progress.
