Whether you are considering a knee, hip, or shoulder replacement, understanding the process can help you feel more confident and prepared for this transformative step towards improved mobility and quality of life.
Joint replacement surgery, also known as arthroplasty, involves replacing a damaged or worn-out joint with an artificial one, called a prosthesis. The procedure is primarily performed to relieve pain, improve joint function, and restore a patient’s ability to carry out daily activities without discomfort. The most common joints replaced are the knees and hips, but shoulder, elbow, and ankle replacements are also possible.
