WHY CONSIDER ADVANCED HIP CARE?

Advanced hip care comprises of various joining replacement procedures, including hip replacement surgery. This is a surgical treatment method for hip arthritis. When the hip joint has worn out, the cartilage should be severely damaged and this causes inflammation as two bones are moving while almost touching one another. A hip replacement surgery should help in improving the joint so you can walk comfortably.

Who Should Have Advanced Hip Care?

You should seek advanced hip care such as hip replacement surgery if you have:

  • Osteoarthritis – This is often referred to as wear-and-tear arthritis in which slick cartilage found on the edges of the bones is damaged. Your joints can not move smoothly and getting a hip replacement surgery will eliminate this problem.
  • Rheumatoid Arthritis – If your immune system is overactive, it may lead to an inflammation that can destroy the cartilage. This condition is referred to as rheumatoid arthritis and it affects the underlying bone. The symptoms of this condition could be a deformed or damaged joint.
  • Osteonecrosis – This is a problem in which the ball part of your hip joint lacks enough blood supply. The result is a deformed or collapsed bone. Undergoing a hip replacement surgery should correct this problem. If the pain persists as you walk around even with support, hip replacement surgery might be more effective.

After having a hip replacement surgery, you should have more quality sleep and you can sit up and rise up with ease. Moreover, you will be able to properly bend without straining.

What Happens During the Procedure ?

Once you are ready for the procedure, a surgeon makes an opening in the side or front of the hip that is affected. This should be done through the underlying layers of tissue. The bone that is diseased and cartilage that is damaged is removed. Only the healthy bone will be left. Since the hip socket was destroyed by the condition, it will be replaced by a prosthetic socket implant. This prosthetic socket will provide adequate support to the pelvic bone.

Owing to the increased advancement in technology, the methods of performing hip replacement are slowly improving. Surgeons aim at finding techniques that are less invasive as it is the preference of most patients. This means that the pain will be less as well as the recovery time.
