What is Hip Replacement Surgery?
Hip replacement surgery (also called hip arthroplasty) involves replacing damaged hip joint surfaces with artificial metal and plastic components. It's one of the most successful surgeries in medicine for relieving severe hip pain and restoring mobility.
Types of Hip Replacement
Total Hip Replacement (THR)
Complete replacement of both the ball (femoral head) and socket (acetabulum). Most common procedure for severe arthritis.
Partial Hip Replacement (Hemiarthroplasty)
Replaces only the femoral head. Often used for hip fractures in elderly patients.
Hip Resurfacing
Preserves more natural bone by capping the femoral head. Ideal for younger, active patients.
Revision Hip Replacement
For patients with worn-out or failed previous hip replacements. Complex procedure requiring specialized expertise.

2What activities can I do after hip replacement?
Most patients return to walking, swimming, cycling, and golf within 3-6 months. Low-impact activities are encouraged. High-impact sports like running and jumping are usually limited to protect the implant.
