Hip osteoarthritis is the condition when the cartilage lining the hip joint begins to wear out, resulting in pain, inflammation and stiffness. The joint may also feel warm. Without treatment, significant damage to the cartilage can even deform the leg and reduce the length of the leg. Patients with hip osteoarthritis or other types of arthritis are recommended to consult an orthopedic surgeon for the right and necessary course of treatment.
Hip replacement surgery is usually suggested to a patient when other treatment measures such as physiotherapy, pain control options (like medications), activity restrictions and lifestyle changes have not been successful and severe, chronic hip pain is affecting your lifestyle and everyday quality of life.
There are many factors that affect the longevity of a hip replacement implant, including the patient’s physiology, age, lifestyle, and the type of implant fitted.

Deep vein thrombosis or DVT is a major risk from flying after a hip replacement surgery. Longer flights have a greater risk than flying short haul.
An orthopedic doctor is the specialist you should consider for hip pain or other hip-related conditions (may it be an injury or degenerative hip disease like osteoarthritis). If you have chronic hip pain that has not resolved on its own and is affecting your daily life and activity level, you should visit an orthopedic doctor to learn about treatment options.
There are 5 main types of arthritis that can affect the hip joint-
Osteoarthritis is the most common type of hip arthritis.
There is no single specific cause of osteoarthritis, but there are certain factors that increase the risk of developing the disease, such as-
People with no above mentioned conditions or risk factors can still develop osteoarthritis.
Common symptoms of osteoarthritis of the hip joint are-
Hip resurfacing is a surgical procedure that can provide short-term relief while delaying a hip replacement. In a hip resurfacing surgery, the diseased surfaces of the hip joint are removed surgically and replaced with smooth metal covering. The entire femur bone is preserved in this procedure, which makes a future hip replacement surgery possible.
Hip hemiarthroplasty is the surgical procedure that replaces half of the hip joint. This procedure has proven to be an effective treatment for various types of femoral neck fractures for over 50 years. It is associated with low incidence rates of dislocation and infection.
Patients are typically discharged from the hospital 2 to 3 days after minimally invasive hip bone replacement.
Conventional hip replacement open surgery uses a large incision of 10 -12 inches while arthroscopic hip replacement surgery needs a small incision of 4 – 6 inch.
If your job involves a regular office setting, you might be able to return to work within 2 to 3 weeks after your hip replacement. However, if your job requires strenuous work, bending over, walking, a lot of exertion, use of heavy machinery or heavy manual labour, you will be advised to take a longer time off work.
Rehabilitation typically begins the same day or next day after the surgery.
Hip bone replacement has a 90% success rate in terms of stability of the joint, pain-relief, patient’s satisfaction, mobility and return to maximum activity.
Robotic hip replacement is the surgery where the orthopedic surgeon uses a robot during the hip bone replacement. The procedure is the same as a normal hip replacement surgery and involves using a CT scan (typically taken prior to the surgery) to produce a 3D (three-dimensional) model of the affected hip joint. The 3D model is then used to digitally plan the surgery, based on the individual anatomy and condition of the patient, enhancing surgery precision.
Benefits of robotic hip replacement include-
You should call your surgeon right away if you notice symptoms of infections or complications after your hip replacement. Call your doctor right away if you notice-
After a hip replacement, the patient is advised to not put full weight on his knees and hips to ensure proper recovery. Risk of an injury or dislocation is also higher as the new hip might not be prepared to take the full weight of the body. A walker can be used by patients after hip replacement to help provide stability to the new hip while moving while keeping it within the weight-bearing restrictions.
Hip replacement surgery can be performed using conventional technique (requiring a 10 to 12 inch incision) and minimally invasive technique ( requiring incision of 4 – 6 inch). As the minimally invasive hip replacement requires a much shorter incision, there is a lot less trauma or damage to the surrounding muscle and tissue, which promotes early recovery. Risk of infection and postoperative complications is also lesser in case of minimally invasive hip replacement. Most orthopedic surgeons prefer to use the minimally invasive approach because of its high success rate and benefits.
Total hip replacement or hip arthroplasty is the most common hip operation performed. Over 70,000 hip procedures take place every year in India.
Loosening or dislocation of the hip joint and difference in length of the leg are the most common complications after hip replacement.
During the hip operation, the patient is given IV (intravenous) fluids to replenish the body’s fluids and balance the sodium levels. The IV fluids can result in some bloating while the body regulates its fluid levels after the surgery. Although it can be uncomfortable, rest assured that a bloated stomach after hip replacement is a normal part of the recovery process and will subside on its own over time. If the problem still persists after a few days, you should speak to your surgeon.

Unlike conventional total hip replacement surgery, minimally invasive hip replacement surgery is suitable and highly beneficial for all patients.

Why might I need a total hip replacement?
A patient has typically suggested a hip replacement surgery if he or she has had significant damage to the hip joint. Several health conditions can damage the hip joint, including-
Any such damage to the hip joint can be severely painful and might even interfere with the individual’s normal lifestyle and activities. Minimally invasive hip replacement surgery can help get relief from symptoms of the condition, recurring or constant pain, and improve the overall mobility and the overall quality of life. Minimally invasive hip replacement surgery is usually recommended to an individual if he or she still has significant problems and prevailing symptoms even after trying other non-surgical treatment options.
What are the advantages of minimally invasive hip replacement surgery?
Minimally invasive hip replacement surgery is the modern procedure preferred by most orthopedic surgeons due to its less invasive surgical approach. During a minimally invasive hip replacement surgery, the surgeon makes a smaller incision of 3 to 4 inches, which is nearly half as compared conventional hip replacement surgery.

There are a number of treatment options for the degenerative hip disease, ranging from nonsurgical to surgical treatment.
