Replacement Surgeries

A1: Severe pain, stiff joints, and limited mobility can be a big problem in your life. Non-surgical treatments may not have helped you, and thus, you might consider having a joint replacement surgery. The best course of action for you will be determined during a consultation with our specialists.

A2: After Elite Hospital performs your operation, there will be a few days in the hospital for monitoring. There is also an outpatient program that includes physical therapy to help regain strength and mobility. We take different time spans to recover, but we always intend to push you until there are no other better results possible.

A3 Preparation for hip replacement surgery involves several steps, including a thorough medical evaluation by our specialists to assess your health and any potential risks. You may also be advised to stop certain medications, arrange for help during your recovery period, and participate in pre-surgical physical therapy to strengthen the muscles around your hip. Our team will provide detailed instructions tailored to the specifics of your case.

A4: Hip implants nowadays can last for 15-20 years; however, their durability relies on a number of variables like your level of activity, weight, as well as the type of implant employed. There is a way that you could make this happen. This will involve following advice from your surgeon about what kind of activities you should not be doing after the surgery and other post-operative care tips. By attending regular check-up sessions at Elite Hospital, we will be able to assess your progress and provide instant solutions to any issues that arise.

A5: It is essential to avoid high-impact activities such as running, jumping, and contact sports that could put too much strain on your newly operated knee; however, low-impact exercises such as walking, swimming, cycling, and gentle yoga are recommended for maintaining fitness and flexibility. Your surgical team at Elite Hospital will give the details depending on your condition.

A6: Candidates suitable for a knee replacement operation frequently have extreme pain or tightness of the knee that impairs routine activities like walking around, climbing stairs, and getting out of chairs. They can also experience from mild to extreme pain even when they are not moving. If all non-operative measures, including medications, physical therapy, and using assistive devices while walking, no longer work, then an individual may consider undergoing knee replacement surgery.
