How soon can I walk after a knee arthroscopy?

You can walk as soon as you’ve recovered from the anaesthetic after your knee arthroscopy, but you’ll need to use crutches or a walker for a few days to a few weeks. When you can walk unaided after your surgery depends on your level of pain and swelling, the type of procedure you had and your individual recovery.
