What is Replacement Surgery ?
Replacement Surgery involves replacing a damaged joint like knee, shoulder or hip with an artificial implant made of plastic, steel or ceramic to relieve pain and restore movement.
This procedure helps you reduce pain, improve movement, and allow you to enhance your quality life. People usually opt for this surgery when they face issues like arthritis, injury, or aging has caused significant joint damage that affects their life.

Replacement Surgery Procedure
Materials Used in Implants
The artificial joints are made from strong, long-lasting materials like metal (such as titanium or cobalt chrome), ceramic, and special plastic called UHMWPE.
How Implants Are Attached
The new joint can be fixed to your bone using a special bone cement for quick stability, or it can be press-fit, and your bone gradually grows into the implant naturally.
Importance of Physical Therapy
Physiotherapy helps rebuild your strength, improve how much your joint can move, and get you back to your daily activities faster.
The Surgery Itself
During the operation, the damaged cartilage and bone are removed. The surgeon then carefully places the artificial joint in position, helping you move comfortably again and reducing pain.
Recovery Time
Recovery time varies from person to person. It may take few weeks to feel better or may take several months to fully recover to get back to the routine.
