It's a question of pain, if you can take the pain of the metal digging into you ligament then yes. sometimes, kneeling is impossible due to where the knee replacement is and you cannot bend you leg properly.

∙ 11y agoIdeally knee osteotomy is a surgical alternative of knee replacement surgery.
So many times patients are reluctant to undergo knee replacement surgery and they search for alternatives.
Knee osteotomy is a technique which was used to treat arthritic knee pain when there was less awareness about knee replacement or simply patient can not go for knee replacement.
But when knee osteotomy also does not give the satisfactory result patient then can go for knee replacement surgery.
Having said that it would be a complicated surgery compared to routine knee replacement surgery.
Hope it helps.

Can knee replacement get a cortisone shot?
I have often heard about cortisone injections as an alternative to knee replacement but it is un heard of to have injection after the knee replacement. What is the logic behind it? Usually injections are taken to subside the pain that arise from contact of arthritic articular surfaces of knee bones. But when knee replacement is already done I do not see a reason for cortisone injection. At the same time if there is sudden severe pain in your knee after replacement surgery doctor might give you a shot of knee injection. Another possibility is if you have partial knee replacement and non operated compartment of your knee joint troubling you. Hope it helps.
