YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Approximately 800,000 knee replacement surgeries are performed each year in the U.S. People living with chronic pain or in need of a better solution are taking the chance to go under the knife for a better quality of life. But it's an invasive procedure, often involving a several-days-long stay in the hospital followed by 6 months to a year of physical therapy. But what if there is another road to knee recovery, a less invasive one with a faster route to getting back to doing the things you love? CartiHeal implants, made from coral exoskeletons may just be the magic bullet for thousands whose knees are only partially damaged. Dr. Cassandra Lee, an orthopedic surgeon and sports medicine specialist at UC Davis, joins The Excerpt to discuss new treatment options.
