Hip replacement surgery, or hip arthroplasty, involves removing damaged parts of the hip joint and replacing them with artificial components to alleviate pain and restore mobility.
What causes hip joint damage? Common causes include osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, hip fractures, and other degenerative conditions.
The surgeon removes the damaged hip joint surfaces and replaces them with prosthetic components, which helps restore normal movement and alleviate pain.
Most patients begin walking with assistance within a day or two.
Typically, it’s about 3 to 5 days in the hospital.
