What is the average recovery and rehabilitation time after a knee replacement?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
3 months: Most patients can perform most activities 6 weeks after the surgery and feel almost normal at 3 months after the surgery. Some patients require up to 3 months of therapy, but most are able to transition to a home exercise program six weeks after surgery.
