If you were a total joint surgeon and needed your own knee replaced, what book would you choose to guide you?
Testimonial Highlight from a Joint Replacement Specialist
"As a joint replacement specialist with decades of experience—and someone who has undergone two shoulder replacements and, most recently, a total knee replacement after 43 years of pain—I thought I knew joint recovery inside and out. But Dr. Andrew Wickline’s Less Swelling Less Pain protocol completely transformed both my personal recovery and my professional approach. His guidance made my own healing faster, less painful, and more effective than I dreamed possible. I’ve since adopted his principles for my own patients, who are now seeing remarkable results. Dr. Wickline’s method is a true game-changer—for joint replacement surgeons and patients alike. I wholeheartedly recommend his book to anyone seeking real freedom after joint replacement."

Recupera dopo la sostituzione dell’anca e del ginocchio con meno gonfiore e dolore
I libri guida Less Swelling Less Pain sul recupero dopo la sostituzione dell’anca e del ginocchio sono stati sviluppati dal rinomato chirurgo ortopedico Dr. Andrew Wickline.
Il Dr. Wickline è noto per i suoi innovativi protocolli di recupero pubblicati che hanno aiutato migliaia di pazienti a riprendersi dalla chirurgia di sostituzione articolare senza dolorosi metodi di fisioterapia.
I suoi protocolli hanno inoltre ridotto drasticamente la necessità di farmaci antidolorifici narcotici per molti pazienti, pur continuando a fornire risultati paragonabili alle tecniche di recupero tradizionali.
In queste guide al recupero, imparerai:
- Come prepararti al recupero dopo la sostituzione dell’anca o del ginocchio
- Ottimizzare l’alimentazione per favorire il recupero
- Cosa aspettarti prima, durante e dopo l’intervento di sostituzione articolare
- Esercizi passo dopo passo per il recupero
- Cosa fare nei giorni, settimane e mesi successivi alla sostituzione dell’anca o del ginocchio
Dall’autore, Andrew Wickline, MD
“Ho iniziato la mia carriera in ortopedia con la specializzazione, iniziata nel 1996 presso l’Albany Medical Center Hospital. Dopo una specializzazione in ortopedia della durata di 5 anni, sono stato fellow in sostituzione articolare totale presso la Cleveland Clinic di Cleveland, Ohio.
Dal 2002 lavoro nello stesso studio a Utica, New York, e ho eseguito oltre 20.000 interventi chirurgici. Vivendo in una piccola città, vedo i miei pazienti non solo in ambulatorio, ma anche in farmacia, al supermercato e al ristorante. Questo mi ha permesso di osservare come i pazienti stessero realmente nella vita quotidiana e, in definitiva, mi ha spinto a scrivere un libro educativo con sezioni dedicate al diario del paziente.
La compilazione del diario da parte dei pazienti sulla loro esperienza postoperatoria è stata molto utile sia per me come chirurgo sia per i miei pazienti successivi. Nel corso degli anni, il libro iniziale è stato modificato e riscritto oltre 28 volte. Spero che questo materiale ti sia di aiuto nel tuo percorso.”
