Chronic Knee Pain After Knee Replacement: A Patient’s 15-Year Journey to Relief
- 4 hours ago
- 1 min read
For many patients, knee replacement surgery is expected to eliminate pain and restore mobility. But for some, the pain never goes away.
This patient lived that reality.
After two total knee replacements, she continued to suffer from debilitating pain for 15 years. Everyday activities—gardening, walking, even sitting comfortably—became impossible. She stopped working. Socializing became a burden.
Like many patients, she was offered medications, injections, and physical therapy—but no real answers.
That changed when she found Dr. Demetrio Aguila.
The Missing Diagnosis: Nerve Pain After Knee Replacement
Persistent pain after knee replacement is often assumed to be related to the implant. However, in many cases, the true cause is nerve damage or entrapment.
These conditions are frequently overlooked in traditional orthopedic care.
A Different Approach to Chronic Knee Pain
Dr. Aguila specializes in peripheral nerve surgery, a targeted approach that identifies and treats the source of nerve-related pain.
By addressing the root cause instead of masking symptoms, patients can experience meaningful, lasting relief.
Life After Treatment
Following treatment, this patient experienced:
Significant reduction in pain
Ability to stay active throughout the day
Return to activities like gardening and walking
Improved quality of life and independence
When to Consider a Nerve Evaluation
If you have:
Persistent pain after knee replacement
Burning, sharp, or radiating pain
Limited function despite “successful” surgery
…it may be time to explore whether nerve damage is the cause.
