Why would a person need joint replacement?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

To work with ease, you need a joint that is perfect and devoid of pain and similar issues. Joint issues can occur during the day to day life activities and also with wear and tear due to old age.

When chronic pain in the joints occurs, it can be very difficult for people.

Sometimes the medications, physiotherapy, and steroids won't be enough to remove the pain, and hence we should go for joint replacement surgery.

With the help of joint replacement surgery, the patients can get back to their healthy state and live without the chronic pain of the joints.

Injury to the joints, heredity reasons, and obesity are other factors that lead to joint issues.

Ranka Hospital, Pune provides the best facilities for joint replacement.
