The removal and replacement of pieces of the pelvis and femur (thigh bone) that make up your hip joint constitute a hip replacement. It is generally used to treat hip stiffness and discomfort brought on by hip arthritis. This surgery is occasionally performed to address various illnesses as well as injuries like a fractured or incorrectly developing hip. Extreme hip discomfort can make it difficult to walk, climb stairs, exercise, or even put on shoes or socks before surgery. Although there are no absolutes, most people discover that walking is simpler following a hip replacement. Increased mobility can be attained after a successful hip replacement procedure that helps to lessen or eliminate pain and stiffness.
