Who is a Hip Replacement Surgeon?

A Hip Replacement Surgeonhas expertise in surgical procedures to treat hip pain. The surgery replaces injured parts of the hip joint with artificial implants. The hip joint consists of a ball (at the top of the thigh bone) and a socket. Hip replacement surgery involves replacement of one or both the parts. The aim of the procedure is to allow you to do daily activities as well as exercise with less pain.

Initially, your surgeon may recommend other treatments like medicine for pain and inflammation, walking aids, joint injection and physical therapies. If these measures do not relieve stiffness and pain, hip replacement surgery could be helpful to restore normal function and improve the quality of life.

Hip replacement surgery is performed to get relief from bone degeneration in candidates who have been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis and other kinds of degenerative diseases. These conditions reduce bone density and leave the bone weak and prone to fractures. In such cases, hip replacement surgeons remove the damaged or affected hip joints and then replace it with prosthesis. The surgery can be differentiated into partial hip replacement or total hip replacement surgery, depending on the level of replacement required.

What are the qualifications of a Hip Replacement Surgeon?

Aspiring candidates need to obtain a 5½ years MBBS degree followed by a 3-year MS (orthopedics) course.
