Hip
Replacement

Also known as hip arthroplasty or total hip replacement (THR), this procedure involves the replacement of a diseased or damaged hip joint with an artificial hip joint. It is one of the most common orthopedic surgery treatments for severe arthritis that damages the hip joint. The procedure involves the surgeon replacing damaged cartilage and bone with prosthetic components to restore hip alignment and function.

Following hip arthroplasty, most physicians recommend a four- to seven-day hospital stay. During the first few days, the patient should avoid immersing the surgical wound in water until it has wholly sealed and dried. Between the third and sixth week, the ability to perform daily activities such as driving can be recovered. Mild pain is usual for the first few weeks while the new artificial hip is activated. However, recovery will be achieved quickly with planned exercise and a balanced iron-rich diet. Postoperative care and precautions for total hip replacement surgery include:

About Hip Replacement

Hip replacement surgery is a medical procedure to relieve pain and improve mobility in individuals suffering from severe hip joint damage or arthritis. During the surgery, a damaged or diseased hip joint is replaced with a prosthetic implant, restoring normal hip function and reducing discomfort.

 

Hip replacement becomes necessary when conservative treatments such as medication, physical therapy, and lifestyle changes fail to provide adequate relief. Conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, hip fractures, and avascular necrosis can all necessitate a hip replacement procedure.

 

There are different types of hip replacement procedures available, including total hip replacement and partial hip replacement. The choice of procedure depends on the severity and location of the hip joint damage, as well as the patient's individual circumstances. Hip replacement surgery has numerous benefits, ranging from reduced pain and increased mobility to improved quality of life.
