Hip Resurfacing Surgery: Symptoms, Classification, Diagnosis & Recovery

Hip resurfacing is a type of hip replacement surgery that uses implants to treat hip pain and stiffness caused by osteoarthritis and other conditions. These implants replace damaged tissue and bone, facilitating smoother movement. Men under 60 are the ideal candidates for hip resurfacing.

Conditions that are treated with hip resurfacing

Arthritis
Fracture
Increased stress on the bones because of obesity (overuse of the bones)
Congenital abnormalities
Necrosis (loss of blood supply)

Following are the signs and symptoms of Hip resurfacing surgery:

Chronic Hip
Stiffness
Swelling
Difficulty Walking
Grinding Sensation
Decreased Function
Pain During Activities

Before undergoing Hip surfacing surgery, the following are the tests that are performed

X-rays
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
Computed Tomography (CT) Scan
Blood Tests
Physical Examination

The patient will spend a day or two in the hospital. With the surgeon's approval, you can start putting weight on the leg soon after surgery. Crutches, a walker, or a cane may be needed for a few weeks until you feel comfortable moving around.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can help ease pain, and physical therapy will assist in regaining mobility. Everyday activities can typically be resumed after six weeks. By the end of 12 months, you should be able to return to full, unrestricted activities, including sports.
