Knee replacement surgery has now become more efficient with advanced
medical technologies. Diabetic patients can also undergo knee replacement
surgery but their sugar levels need to be controlled before the surgery.
The haemoglobin and HBA1c levels are
checked for an average of 3 months and only if the levels are in the optimal
range, surgery is suggested.
Patients who have uncontrolled diabetes may result in negative outcomes like inflammation which makes the control of blood sugar levels vital before the surgery. The orthopaedicians will suggest a diet plan and exercise routine that will help you bring the blood sugar levels under control. The orthopaedics will also suggest you lose weight if you are obese.
