Hip Replacement Requirements

Complete information — services offered, symptoms to watch for, treatment options and patient FAQs for hip replacement.

Surgical Care

Total Hip Replacement (THR)

Complete replacement of the damaged hip joint with femoral and acetabular components — ideal for severe arthritis and end-stage joint damage.

Bone Preserving

Hip Resurfacing

An option that preserves more bone by capping the femoral head — suitable for younger, active patients with good bone quality.

Revision Surgery

Revision Hip Replacement

Used to replace or repair a failing hip implant due to loosening, wear, instability or infection — requires specialized expertise.

Robotic Precision

Robotic-Assisted Hip Replacement

Advanced planning and robotic guidance to improve implant positioning and leg length accuracy — may improve outcomes for selected patients.

Less Invasive

Minimally Invasive Hip Replacement

Smaller incisions and muscle-sparing approaches aimed at reducing early pain and speeding initial recovery.

Custom Fit

Patient-Specific / Custom Implants

CT/MRI-based planning and custom components for patients with unusual anatomy or complex deformities.

Symptoms

Common Symptoms

  • Pain in the groin or outer hip that limits walking
  • Stiffness and reduced range of motion in the hip
  • Limping or difficulty climbing stairs
  • Night pain disturbing sleep
  • Giving way or instability of the hip

When to See a Doctor

If hip pain limits daily activities, walking or sleep, or non-surgical treatments (physiotherapy, medicines, injections) fail — consult an orthopaedic specialist for evaluation and imaging to consider hip replacement.

Solution

Non-Surgical Treatment

  • Physiotherapy & targeted muscle strengthening
  • Weight management & activity modification
  • Analgesics and anti-inflammatory medicines
  • Intra-articular injections (steroid or viscosupplement)
  • Walking aids or assistive devices

Surgical Options

Surgical treatment is advised when conservative care fails. Options include Total Hip Replacement, Hip Resurfacing, Revision surgery or robotic-assisted procedures depending on the patient’s condition.

After Surgery

  • Early mobilization — most patients walk with support soon after surgery
  • Physiotherapy & home exercises for several weeks
  • Gradual return to daily activities over 6–12 weeks; full recovery may take longer

Frequently Asked Questions

Modern hip implants commonly last 15–25 years or more depending on activity level, weight and implant type. Regular follow-up helps monitor implant function.
Most patients begin walking with assistance within 24–48 hours. Many return to routine activities in 6–12 weeks; full recovery and strength may take several months depending on rehab.
Low-impact activities (walking, swimming, cycling) are commonly resumed; high-impact sports should be discussed with your surgeon — activity recommendations depend on implant type and patient factors.
Simultaneous bilateral hip replacement is possible for selected patients but requires careful medical assessment; staged procedures are more common for safety and recovery reasons.
