There are many ways to treat hip pain caused by arthritis. One way is total hip replacement surgery. The decision to have total hip replacement surgery should be made very carefully after consulting your doctor and learning as much as you can about the hip joint, arthritis, and the surgery.
In total hip replacement surgery, the ball and socket that have been injured by arthritis are repaired and replaced to restore your quality of life.
If medications, changes in your everyday activities, and the use of walking aids such as a cane are not helpful, you may want to consider hip surgery. If your hip has been damaged by arthritis, a fracture or other conditions, common activities such as walking or getting in and out of a chair may be painful and difficult. Resting and sitting may even feel uncomfortable. You can have a partial hip replacement, total hip replacement surgery or if only one part of the joint is damaged, a partial hip replacement may be recommended. If the whole joint is damaged, an artificial joint (total hip replacement surgery) can relieve your pain and help you get back to enjoying normal, everyday activities. Hip replacement surgery by experienced orthopedic surgeons is highly successful in relieving pain and restoring movement. |
