Questions
What type of anesthesia will I receive for my surgery?
Dr. Snibbe's team uses board-certified anesthesiologists specializing in orthopedic care. Regional anesthesia is preferred when possible, minimizing pain and side effects compared to general anesthesia.
How long should I ice my joint after surgery?
Ice 5-6 times daily for 30 minutes during the first two weeks. Continue daily icing for 30 minutes post-therapy sessions after this period.
When can I shower after my procedure?
Showering is allowed 2 days post-arthroscopy and 1 day post-joint replacement, avoiding submersion until bandages are removed at follow-up appointments.
How soon can I return to physical activity?
Upper body exercise resumes immediately. Lower body impact activities require 6-12 weeks for arthroscopy and 2-4 weeks for replacements, depending on recovery progress.
Do I need antibiotics for dental work after joint replacement?
Antibiotics are required only for invasive dental procedures like extractions, not routine cleanings. We'll provide prescriptions for necessary cases.
When can I travel by air after surgery?
Air travel is permitted 1-2 weeks post-surgery. For joint replacements, walk the aisle hourly and take aspirin twice daily for six weeks to prevent clots.
