Skiing after Total Knee Replacement

greenspun.com : LUSENET : About Joints : One Thread

I am 55 and considering TNR. I was an intermediate level skiier but can no longer ski due to arthritis in both knees. If I were to have a TKR on both knees would I be able to ski again?

This will vary from physician to physician. I do let my patients who know how to ski return to skiing.
