What is a hip replacement?
A surgeon removes the damaged sections of your hip joint and replaces them with pieces made of metal, ceramic, or extremely hard plastic during hip replacement. This prosthesis (artificial joint) helps to relieve discomfort and enhance function. Hip replacement surgery, also known as total hip arthroplasty, may be an option for you if your hip discomfort is interfering with your everyday activities and nonsurgical therapies haven't helped or are no longer effective. The most prevalent reason for hip replacement is arthritis damage.
Common Causes
The following are some of the conditions that might damage the hip joint and necessitate hip replacement surgery:
- Osteoarthritis. This is a "wear and tear" kind of arthritis that develops with age. It generally affects adults over the age of 50, and it's more common in persons who have a family history of arthritis. The cartilage that cushions the hip bones goes away. Hip pain and stiffness resulting from the bones rubbing against one other. Osteoarthritis can also be triggered or hastened by minor flaws in how the hip developed as a child.
- Rheumatoid arthritis is a kind of arthritis that affects the joints. The synovial membrane becomes inflamed and thickened in this autoimmune illness. Chronic inflammation can cause cartilage degradation, resulting in discomfort and stiffness. Rheumatoid arthritis is the most prevalent kind of inflammatory arthritis group of diseases.
- Hip disease in children. Hip issues affect certain infants and children. Even if the issues are adequately addressed throughout childhood, arthritis might develop later in adulthood. This occurs because the hip may not develop properly, causing damage to the joint surfaces.
What are the different types of hip replacement operations?
The following are the three main kinds of hip replacements:
- Total hip replacement surgery (most common)
- Hip resurfacing
- Partial hip replacement.
A complete hip replacement is the most frequent form of hip replacement surgery (also called total hip arthroplasty).
Total hip replacement surgery has several advantages. The success rate for this treatment is expected to be about 99 per cent. The post-surgery recuperation is excellent. It's convenient and pain-relieving. The joint's range of motion is extended, the leg's length is restored, and one may rapidly resume regular duties. However, some high-intensity activities, such as jogging, playing, or leaping, should be avoided indefinitely to avoid premature deterioration of the prosthetic hip joint. However, the overall success and satisfaction rate after hip replacement surgery is outstanding.
