Total Hip Replacement
What is it?
Whether you have just begun exploring treatment options or have already decided to undergo hip replacement surgery, this information will help you understand the benefits and limitations of total hip replacement. This article describes how a normal hip works, the causes of hip pain, what to expect from hip replacement surgery, and what exercises and activities will help restore your mobility and strength, and enable you to return to everyday activities.
If your hip has been damaged by arthritis, a fracture, or other condition, common activities such as walking or getting in and out of a chair may be painful and difficult. This surgery will help by replacing the diseased and damaged portions of the hip with implants designed to restore the function and mobility to the hip joint. Hip replacement surgery is a safe and effective way to help relieve pain, increase range of motion, and help you get back to enjoying your life and everyday activities.
