REPLACEMENTS
Replacement surgery, also known as joint replacement surgery, is a surgical procedure that involves removing a damaged or diseased joint and replacing it with an artificial joint prosthesis. This type of surgery is most commonly performed on large weight-bearing joints such as the hip or knee but can also be performed on other joints like the shoulder or elbow. The primary goal of replacement surgery is to relieve pain, improve joint function, and enhance the patient's quality of life....Read More
During the procedure, the damaged joint surfaces are carefully removed and replaced with prosthetic components made of metal, plastic, or a combination of both. These components are designed to mimic the natural joint, allowing for smooth movement and weight-bearing. The surgery is performed under general or regional anesthesia, and in some cases, minimally invasive techniques may be employed to reduce tissue damage and facilitate faster recovery.
Following joint replacement surgery, patients undergo a structured rehabilitation program to regain strength, flexibility, and function. Physical therapy plays a crucial role in the recovery process, focusing on improving range of motion, muscle strength, and mobility. With proper post-operative care and rehabilitation, most patients experience significant pain relief, improved joint function, and a return to their normal activities.
Joint replacement surgery has revolutionized the treatment of severe joint conditions, such as advanced arthritis or joint degeneration. It has become a well-established and highly successful procedure, offering long-term pain relief and restoring joint function for millions of people worldwide. Advances in surgical techniques, implant materials, and rehabilitation protocols continue to improve the outcomes of replacement surgeries, allowing patients to regain their independence and enjoy an active, pain-free life.
