A total hip replacement surgery involves 3 kinds of the prosthesis. The first is a cup that is used to replace the hips socket. The next is a ball that replaces the head of the thigh bone and finally, there is a stem that is attached to the thigh bone. These 3 together are responsible for the movement of the hip. In some cases, not every part will be damaged.

Joint replacement is an option for those who have suffered injury or conditions such as osteoarthritis. When the pain in the joints limits a person’s daily activities and does not seem to be responding to conservative treatment, joint replacement surgery is recommended. Several factors increase the risk of weakening your joints such as hereditary, trauma, obesity, repetitive injuries, etc.
