At Dr. Shounak Taywade’s Orthopedic Clinic, we offer advanced and affordable hip replacement in Nagpur with exceptional success rates and rapid recovery.
✅ What is Hip Replacement Surgery?
Hip replacement (also known as hip arthroplasty) is a surgical procedure in which a damaged hip joint is replaced with an artificial joint (prosthesis). It is most commonly recommended for:
- Osteoarthritis (wear-and-tear arthritis)
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Avascular necrosis (bone death due to lack of blood supply)
- Hip fractures or trauma
- Failed previous surgeries
Hip replacement can relieve pain, restore function, and significantly improve quality of life.
