What is Total Joint Replacement?
Total joint replacement is a surgical procedure that involves removing damaged or arthritic joints and replacing them with metal, ceramic or plastic devices known as a prosthesis, which are made for replicating healthy, regular joint movements.
By getting a new joint, you can significantly reduce your pain or may even be pain-free. Your joints will be able to work normally, again, and you can enjoy a full range of motion. Therefore, it will be much easier to walk and perform your everyday tasks. Some people can even play sports, such as golf, cycling, and other low-impact ones that they couldn't do before their surgery.
