Joint Replacement

Joint Replacement Surgery is a specialized procedure designed to relieve pain and restore function in joints that are severely damaged due to arthritis, injury, or wear and tear over time. The most commonly replaced joints include the hip, knee, and shoulder, although other joints can also be treated.

Common Types of Joint Replacement:

 

  • Hip Replacement: For patients with chronic hip pain or stiffness.

  • Knee Replacement: For advanced arthritis or knee injuries.

  • Shoulder Replacement: For severe shoulder arthritis or rotator cuff damage.

Why Joint Replacement May Be Needed:

 

  • Persistent joint pain that limits daily activities

  • Swelling and inflammation that doesn’t improve with medication

  • Reduced joint mobility and stiffness

  • Joint deformity or previous injury

Benefits:

 

  • Significant pain relief

  • Improved joint function and mobility

  • Enhanced quality of life

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Joint replacement surgery is a procedure where a damaged or diseased joint is replaced with an artificial joint (prosthesis) made of metal, ceramic, or plastic to restore mobility and relieve pain.

The most commonly replaced joints are the hip, knee, and shoulder, but in some cases, the elbow, ankle, or finger joints can also be replaced.

Joint replacement is usually recommended when:

  • Pain becomes severe and persistent

  • Daily activities like walking or climbing stairs are affected

  • Non-surgical treatments (medications, injections, physiotherapy) no longer help

Modern joint implants typically last 15 to 20 years or more, depending on the patient's lifestyle, activity level, and overall health.
