Where is the pain if you need a knee replacement?

My knees have been bothering me for so long now, especially after a little walking. The doctor mentioned a knee replacement might be needed eventually. I just want to understand where exactly this pain would be if it's that serious?

Oh god, knee pain must be so tough. I mean, how do you even go for good street food with that kind of pain? Hope you find some relief soon!

Yes, many times the pain feels like it's deep inside the joint, making it hard to pinpoint exactly.

Beta, often people feel it right at the front or inside of the knee, sometimes even the back. My aunt had it for years, and it affected her daily walks. A good doctor can tell you what's best.

I can only share what my uncle went through. For him, the pain was mostly in the joint itself and became worse with any movement. It made climbing stairs very difficult. He eventually got it replaced.

My neighbour had severe knee pain that radiated all the way down his leg. Don't try to guess, please go to a doctor and get it properly checked, especially if the pain is constant or very sharp.
