Hip Replacement Surgery
Hip Replacement Surgery
The Hip is one of the most important sections of our body. Before understanding what Hip Replacement Surgery is all about, it would be good to begin by understanding the hip and hip joint.
The Hip is the area located on each side of the pelvis (a container-shaped structure that supports the vertebral column). Subsequently, the hip joint is a ball-and-socket joint that allows movement and plays a significant role in helping us bear our body weight.
Despite the hip being one of the most stable regions of our body, since it bears our entire body weight, it is susceptible to being overstressed due to pressure. This leads to a condition called Arthritis which is one of the common reasons for the breakdown of the hip.
According to seasoned Hip Replacement Surgeons in Bangalore, the preferred treatment for this condition is Hip Replacement Surgery.
What is Hip Replacement Surgery?
Hip Replacement Surgery is a surgical treatment where the orthopaedic surgeon removes the damaged part of the Hip and replaces it with an artificial joint. The artificial joint is usually made of metal, ceramic or plastic. This surgery is very effective in facilitating the smooth functioning of the Hip.
