HIP AND KNEE REPLACEMENT (Health Guide)
Hip and knee replacement surgeries have become very common in many older patients, as well as in certain age groups for specific reasons. The prostheses used are made of highly biocompatible alloys that do not cause allergic reactions.
Orthopedic clinics perform hip and knee replacement surgery using a variety of methods. The right approach is first to see an orthopedic surgeon for a detailed physical examination, and then to create a detailed surgical plan based on imaging findings. After that, a successful physical therapy program aims to enable patients to resume their daily activities to the fullest extent.
Although we also receive many questions about hip dislocation surgery, this is a very separate and very important topic in orthopedics. It must be investigated in childhood and identified with hip ultrasonography, and the necessary corrective interventions must be performed by an orthopedic surgeon.
