Hip Replacement Surgery in India — Move Freely Again at an Affordable Cost
Hip replacement surgery (total hip arthroplasty) replaces a damaged or arthritic hip joint with an artificial prosthesis, restoring pain-free movement. It is highly effective for severe osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, hip fractures, and avascular necrosis. India’s orthopedic centres offer Total Hip Replacement and Hip Resurfacing using ceramic, metal, and polyethylene implant combinations for maximum longevity (20–30 years). Minimally invasive (anterior approach) hip replacement reduces muscle damage and cuts recovery time by 30–40%. Post-operative physiotherapy
starts the same day as surgery, and most patients walk independently within 2–3 days.
