I think I need a hip or knee replacement: What's next?
Most hip and knee replacements occur due to damage from osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis causes:
​
-
Cartilage to thin and roughen
-
Bones to begin rubbing together
-
Gradual damage to the joint, which worsens over time
If non-surgical treatments are no longer working for you, or you have:
-
Increased pain
-
Limited mobility
-
Inability to participate in daily activities
It may be time to consult with an orthopedic surgeon about a hip replacement.
