FAQ

When can I walk after replacement?

Most patients walk with a walker or crutches within 1–3 days. Full recovery takes 3–6 months.

How long do I stay in China?

Knee/hip: 10–14 days. Spine: 14–21 days. You can return home after initial rehab.

Can I fly after surgery?

We recommend waiting 6–8 weeks after joint replacement to allow initial healing.

What about implant brands?

We use Zimmer, Stryker and DePuy implants — same brands as Western hospitals.
