Hip Arthroplasty
Walking or stepping into and out of a chair may be painful and difficult if your hip has been injured by arthritis, a fracture, or another disorder. It's possible that your hip is stiff, making putting on shoes and socks difficult. It is possible that you will experience anxiety while relaxing. If medications, lifestyle changes, and the use of walking aids are ineffective, hip replacement surgery may be an option.
According to the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality Each year, over 450,000 total hip replacements are performed in the United States. The decision to perform surgery is based on the patient's difficulty and impairment, rather than their age. The vast majority of patients with a total age of 50 and 80, although orthopaedic surgeons assess each patient individually.
