Frequently Asked Questions
The hip is one of the largest joints in your body. As a weight-bearing, ball-and-socket joint, the hip endures a tremendous amount of stress.
Hip replacement surgery, also called total hip replacement or hip arthroplasty, involves removing damaged or worn-out cartilage and bone and replacing them with artificial parts.
Hip replacement surgery aims to relieve hip pain and restore normal functioning. Total hip replacement is a safe and effective procedure that can dramatically improve your quality of life.
An orthopedic hip replacement surgeon can evaluate your need for hip replacement. Elite has two orthopedic hip replacement specialists in Nashville and Franklin, Tennessee.
Arthritis is the leading cause of long-term hip pain and disability. Elite’s Nashville hip replacement surgeons use hip replacement surgery to treat many types of hip arthritis, including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and post-traumatic arthritis.
Other conditions that might need hip replacement surgery include severe hip fractures and osteonecrosis. Also called avascular necrosis, osteonecrosis involves reduced blood flow to the hip.
Before hip replacement surgery, the Elite hip replacement surgeon perform a comprehensive physical exam and review your medical history. They may order blood tests and take an on-site imaging test like an X-ray.
During the procedure, you’re asleep under general anesthesia. Your hip replacement surgeon may perform a posterior or anterior approach to hip replacement.
In a posterior approach, your hip surgeon will make an incision in your lower back and cut through muscle to access the hip joint. In an anterior approach, the incision will be made in the upper thigh and the muscles will be pushed aside to access the hip. Both approaches have advantages and disadvantages, so it is important to discuss surgical options with your hip replacement surgeon.
Elite’s hip replacement surgeons always consider conservative treatments before recommending surgery.
Hip replacement surgery may be right for you if you have hip pain and limited mobility due to arthritis or another condition that doesn’t respond to non-surgical treatments like physical therapy.
The team at Elite Sports Medicine + Orthopedics provides you with instructions on how to recover from hip replacement surgery, including pain management, wound care, diet, and activity recommendations.
Physical therapy and rehabilitation is an essential part of a successful recovery from any type of surgery. Most people can resume light activities, such as climbing stairs, within 3-6 weeks after hip replacement surgery. Your strength continues to improve over 6-12 months.
Most hip replacements will last between 15-20 years; however, factors like age, weight, lifestyle, and osteoporosis can affect the longevity of your hip replacement.
