Guest guest Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 I was shocked to read that two-thirds of the knee replacement surgeries are for women who suffer more than men (Indian Express, Pune Newsline, “Body & Mind’, May 2, 2007). Although it is good to know that Zimmer Gender Solutions have developed special knee implants especially suited to women that US FDA has also approved. Since most women are prone to suffer knee pain as they grow older, they are bound to become unwilling patients for knee replacement surgery that is both costly and not as good as the original knee. Hence all those who get the first signs of knee pain must start taking precautions to prevent further deterioration. For that purpose, the Pune-based Nature Cure Centre of the Save India Association (SIA) has developed simple knee exercises that can be done easily by any one to prevent further deterioration leading to knee replacement. Those interested can get more info from the Centre’s helpline number 91-20-26870204. Issued in public interest by S. M. Acharya, President SIA, 155 St. Patrick’s Town, Pune – 411 013 (INDIA), Tel: 91-20-26870204, cell: 91-94223 14693, Website: www.atbsnr.com Email: smacharya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
