Hip Surgeries
Hip Injuries Interventions
Hip injuries may occur suddenly, such as through a fall, or gradually from the strain of everyday movements and activities. These injuries disrupt the hip’s functionality, affecting the complex interplay of bones, muscles, ligaments, and other structures. Treatment options for hip issues span from physical therapy and medications to surgical interventions.
Hip Replacement Surgery
Hip replacement surgery involves the replacement of a damaged hip joint with an artificial one. Typically performed in response to severe hip fractures or arthritis, this procedure can be carried out through traditional or minimally-invasive techniques.
Prior to surgery, the surgeon evaluates your medical history, conducts a thorough examination of your hip, and may order tests and x-rays to determine the necessity of the procedure.
