Arthritis Facts

Arthritis is one of the leading causes of disability in the world. The intractable pain from this condition limits even the most basic everyday activities such as walking, and getting in and out of a chair. That’s why knee and hip replacement surgeries have life-changing importance for the suffering patients.

The principal goal of joint replacement surgery is to replace the rough surfaces of the arthritic joint with artificial, smooth, durable implants, which reestablishes normal joint function. Total joint replacement surgery is indicated in cases of severe, intractable degenerative arthritis of the joint, which is unresponsive to medical therapy, and when pain and functional limitations begin to reduce the patient’s quality of life.

Using the latest technology and minimally invasive techniques, knee and hip replacement surgeries allow patients to experience a rapid recovery, and walk again within a couple of days.
