For 16 years, Mary Telma from Puthenthope, Kerala, lived with severe knee pain. Walking was a struggle, and her mobility was severely limited. Her condition had reached a point where her legs had become deformed, making simple daily activities difficult.

In January, Mary consulted Dr. Muhammed Nazeer (Senior Consultant & Group Coordinator, Orthopedics) at KIMSHEALTH Trivandrum. She underwent a Total Knee Replacement surgery, which completely transformed her life.

Just four months post-surgery, Mary defied expectations. Not only is she walking pain-free, but she is also driving, riding her scooter, and back to doing what she loves—Zumba!

Dr. Muhammed Nazeer highlights that while knee replacement patients are usually advised to return to routine activities, Mary's determination allowed her to regain her full range of motion and return to high-energy activities like dancing.

See Mary back in action, leading a Zumba session with joy and confidence!
