You will need to stay in hospital for a few days where your progress will be monitored by the orthopaedician and physiotherapist. You will be asked to move the knee immediately after surgery. To help you in this, the physiotherapist at Fortis Hospital Mulund will put you on the Continuous Passive Motion (CPM) machine that will move your knee joint. Besides medications to manage the pain, you will need to take certain precautions to allow the knee to heal completely. This may take a couple of months. The surgical staples will be removed during your follow-up visit to the hospital.
