I had a knee replacement 3 yrs ago is ok to go to tanning beds
It's generally advisable to avoid tanning beds after knee replacement surgery until you have fully healed, which usually takes several months. The skin around the surgical site can be sensitive and more prone to damage, and exposure to UV light may hinder healing or increase the risk of complications. Always consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice based on your recovery progress.
tanning should have no effect on the screws in your knee. It would just be like wearing jewelry in the tanning bed, no big deal! It doesn't heat up enough to effect the metal in your knee or anywhere else on or in your body.
Yes, a person can tan in a tanning bed after knee replacement surgery, but they should consult their doctor first. It's important to ensure that the surgical site has healed properly and there are no complications.

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.
