Why Total Hip Replacement Is Needed

Performed for severe hip joint damage from osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, avascular necrosis, or hip fractures, when the joint has degenerated to the point where pain and stiffness significantly limit daily function. It's typically considered after conservative treatments like medication, physiotherapy, and injections no longer provide adequate relief.

Signs You May Need Total Hip Replacement

Warning signs include persistent hip pain that worsens with activity and doesn't improve with rest, stiffness that limits range of motion, difficulty walking, climbing stairs, or getting up from a chair, and pain that disrupts sleep. A noticeable limp or the need to rely heavily on walking aids due to hip pain are also strong indicators that replacement may be needed.

Types of Total Hip Replacement

Total hip replacement can use different bearing surface combinations — metal-on-polyethylene, ceramic-on-ceramic, or ceramic-on-polyethylene — chosen based on the patient's age and activity level, and can be performed via posterior, anterior, or lateral surgical approaches. Minimally invasive techniques using smaller incisions are increasingly used to potentially speed recovery.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do hip replacement implants last?

Modern hip implants typically last 15-20 years or more, though this varies by patient activity level, weight, and implant type; your orthopedic surgeon can give a more personalized estimate.

How soon can I walk after hip replacement surgery?

Most patients begin walking with a frame or crutches on the very first day after surgery, with mobility steadily improving over the following weeks with physiotherapy.

Is hip replacement surgery painful?

The surgery is done under anesthesia so you won't feel it happening, and post-operative pain is managed with medication, generally improving significantly within the first few weeks.

When can I return to normal activities after hip replacement?

Most patients return to daily activities within 6-12 weeks, with full recovery and return to more strenuous activities taking up to 3-6 months.

Are there restrictions after hip replacement surgery?

Yes, avoiding bending the hip beyond 90 degrees, crossing your legs, and certain twisting movements for about 6 weeks helps prevent dislocation while the joint heals; your surgeon and physiotherapist will guide you through safe movement.
