Hip pain can be debilitating and limit your ability to perform daily activities. If conservative treatments haven’t provided relief, hip replacement surgery may be an effective option.
What is Hip Replacement Surgery?
Hip replacement surgery is a surgical procedure to replace the damaged hip joint with an artificial implant. The implant is designed to restore the hip joint’s function and reduce pain.
When is Hip Replacement Surgery Necessary?
Hip replacement surgery is typically considered when:
- Hip pain interferes with daily activities
- Stiffness limits your range of motion
- Non-surgical treatments have failed to provide relief
- Osteoarthritis has severely damaged the hip joint
The Surgery Process
Hip replacement surgery is a complex procedure that typically takes about one to two hours. During the surgery, your surgeon will remove the damaged hip joint and implant the artificial hip joint.
Recovery and Rehabilitation
Recovery from hip replacement surgery takes time and patience. Physical therapy is an essential part of the rehabilitation process. Your physiotherapist will guide you through exercises to strengthen your hip, improve flexibility, and regain mobility.
