I’m in the hospital yesterday I had my hip replacement and I still have pain hopefully with the therapy would go away , thank God I came out of surgery alive the anesthesia scared me 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
It’s totally normal to still have some pain right after a hip replacement-your body’s just starting to heal. With time and therapy, the pain should improve, and you’ll be on the road to recovery. Keep up with the physical therapy, and hopefully, you’ll feel much better soon. Take it one day at a time, and stay strong!
Had my right hip done in April, feeling good, heals quickly. Still in physio, going up stairs. Left hip will be done in Sept. Can't wait as it is even more painful since the right hip was done.
Yes, that is a normal option. Sockets can be screwed or cemented in to help hold it in place. Different factors such as age and bone health will factor into your surgeon's decisions.
I had a right anterior hip replacement 7 weeks ago. I just got in from walking two miles. I am almost limp free now with less than a 1 on the pain scale. Closer to a none than one. Still hurts when I get up from sitting sometimes, most of the time but I am waay better off now than pre op. Get a good insurance plan AND Medicare Part B when you turn 65. Hospital billed $140k and agreed to accept $14k. Other than my monthly premiums I paid $0 zero .
Steroid shots can often help reduce inflammation and provide temporary relief from the pain caused by arthritis, so they might give you some time before needing more invasive procedures. The good news is that many people find significant relief with steroid injections, allowing them to manage pain and maintain their lifestyle for a while. It’s also great that you’re looking to preserve your body’s function as long as possible. Keep communicating with your doctor about how the injections are working and explore all the available non-surgical options to keep your hip healthy. If you’re not ready for surgery yet, it’s okay to take things step by step and reassess your treatment plan as you go. You’re doing the right thing by being proactive and considering all your options!
I too love my body parts, but when the pain prevents me from living a happy life, it's time to do something. I tried the shots, but they only lasted so long. My left hip was replaced 4 years ago, and I'm scheduled to have my right hip replaced one week from today. I can't wait! So don't be afraid, as long as you do your research and find a doctor that you feel comfortable with you will be fine. These people are professionals and they perform these surgeries all the time.
Had my right hip replaced 3 days ago, meanwhile in dec 2022 had my left hip replced , both are Total hip replacement due to bilateral coxarthrosis. I have surely got beneficial health now i am walking again.
Great question! In a healthy hip joint, the ball (the head of the femur) fits securely into the socket (the acetabulum) and is supported by a combination of ligaments, cartilage, and muscle. These structures provide stability and cushioning. In cases where hip replacement is needed, these natural supports are often damaged or worn out, which is why they don’t work as effectively anymore. During a total hip replacement, the prosthetic socket is implanted with a liner, often made of materials like plastic or ceramic, to help support and cushion the ball, creating a smooth, stable movement similar to a natural joint. The muscles and ligaments around the joint also help maintain stability after the procedure.
@@SandS72 thank you. I'm really trying hard and taking it day by day. Even though my big back surgery was back 25 Jan 2023 I'm still doing PT but going "balls to the wall". Hopefully soon I'll be able to hit the gym on my own and get that Bruce Lee bod back !! But being 60 now it won't be very easy. The older we get the harder it is to drop weight and build muscle.
I had a hip replacement on New Years day 2020. It has fallen out 3 times since. I have now been told that it will need replaced again. The problem being it was not put in correctly.
It’s understandable to feel concerned about the ball slipping out after seeing the procedure. In a total hip replacement, the ball is kept in place by a combination of factors: 1. Muscle and Ligament Support: After surgery, the surrounding muscles, ligaments, and tendons help stabilize the joint and keep everything in place. That’s why physical therapy and strengthening exercises are so important post-surgery. 2. The Fit of the Prosthesis: The prosthetic components are designed to fit snugly. The ball of the hip is shaped to fit securely in the new socket, and sometimes an implant may even have additional features like a lip to reduce the chance of dislocation. 3. Proper Positioning: The surgeon carefully aligns the joint to minimize the risk of dislocation. However, in some cases, if positioning or activity leads to the hip being placed in certain angles, there’s a greater risk for dislocation. Unfortunately, some people, like your friend, may experience repeated dislocations due to factors like improper healing, muscle weakness, or the specific structure of their hip. If dislocations keep happening, doctors might consider options like revision surgery or even different types of implants designed to reduce this risk. Rehabilitation and being mindful of certain movements are also key to preventing future dislocations.
No, A dual mobility prosthesis is a type of hip replacement implant designed to provide extra stability, especially for patients who are at a higher risk of dislocation. It features a two-component design: a larger ball within a cup, which itself is inserted into the socket of the hip joint. The larger ball offers greater range of motion and helps prevent dislocations, while the smaller, inner ball allows for better movement and stability. If your surgeon has recommended or used this type of prosthesis, it’s often due to factors like the need for a more stable joint in patients with high activity levels or certain anatomical considerations that increase the risk of dislocation. Always be sure to confirm with your surgeon whether this is the specific type of prosthesis used in your case.
Great question, it can depend. In traditional hip replacement surgery, surgeons would make a long incision through muscles, tendons, and ligaments to access the hip joint, New procedures were developed where they can access the hip through the anterior or posterior (front or back) as shown, where the muscles are separated but not cut through allowing for a faster and easier recovery. The muscle-sparing procedure can be done on most patients unless they previously had hip surgery, are obese or have significant deformity of the hip. The view we show with just bones, is meant to make what is happening in the procedure easier to understand, (not imply the muscles were removed)
For me, because the femur head is so damaged and malformed that it's gotta go. Deformed from birth (bad dysplasia & spica casting), now covered in bone spurs, cysts & other damage from 50+ years of use. Can't wait for my shiny new bionic hip.
@yoyoland8461 The reason they don’t just reshape the ball is that in many cases, the cartilage on the surface of the femoral head is worn away or damaged, which would cause ongoing pain and poor joint function. Simply reshaping the ball wouldn’t provide a durable, smooth surface for movement. The prosthetic ball and socket are made from materials designed to reduce friction, provide smooth movement, and last for many years, which is why replacing both is generally the best option for long-term results.
@healthdecide What happens with the capsular ligaments? Are they too retracted or are they cut? Is the ligament that connects the femoral head inside the acetabulum removed when you ream out the socket?
@@sueanntownsend1971 In a total hip replacement, the capsular ligaments that surround and stabilize the hip joint are typically cut to allow access to the joint. During surgery, the joint capsule, which contains ligaments that support hip stability, must be opened to reach the femoral head and acetabulum (hip socket). Surgeons will often repair or close these structures around the new joint implant at the end of the procedure to restore stability as much as possible. Regarding the ligament of the femoral head (ligamentum teres), this ligament is usually removed when reaming out the acetabulum. The reaming process reshapes the hip socket to fit the new acetabular component, and this ligament is generally detached or resected because it’s no longer necessary for hip stability once the prosthetic components are in place. The prosthetic joint relies on the artificial components and surrounding soft tissues for stability rather than the ligamentum teres.
I'm scared! I'm 47yrs old and my doctor tells me that I have arthritis in my left hip. It hurts, and bothers me everyday. I asked what can be done for it and he replied, "Hip replacement." Didn't discuss other options or anything. Seems too anxious to cut me open and do a surgery! Financially motivated??? 🤔. I feel like I'm too young for a hip replacement. Think the arthritis is due to a parents tending year that I had in my left knee some years ago, that led to a change in gait. Hip replacement seems VERY extreme for arthritis! Can stem cell therapy cure this (real stem cell therapy like is done in countries other than the USA)? I want to be able to jog, run, jump, do squats. 😢
I am 31 years old and also needing one.. I take meloxicam which alleviates my pain tremendously but is a bandaid approach I have 2 young children (3 &1) I am hoping I can safely take the meds a few years so they can be older but likely I'll need a revision being so young
It’s completely understandable to feel worried, especially when facing the idea of hip replacement surgery. While it may seem extreme, it’s not uncommon for doctors to suggest hip replacement if arthritis is causing significant pain and limiting daily activities. However, there are other options worth exploring before jumping into surgery, especially since you’re concerned about being too young for it. Here are some other treatments and options to consider: 1. Non-surgical treatments: • Physical therapy can help improve your range of motion, strengthen muscles around the hip, and reduce pain. This could also address any gait issues caused by your past knee injury. • Medications like anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs) or cortisone injections might help manage pain and inflammation. • Lifestyle modifications such as weight management, low-impact exercises (swimming, cycling), and avoiding activities that aggravate your hip can provide relief. 2. Stem cell therapy: • Some people explore stem cell treatments, which aim to regenerate cartilage or reduce inflammation in the joint. However, the effectiveness of stem cell therapy for arthritis, especially in the hip, is still being researched. While it shows promise, it’s not a guaranteed cure, and results can vary. Access to high-quality, proven treatments might also be limited depending on where you live, and not all options overseas are thoroughly vetted or regulated. 3. Other minimally invasive options: • Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections or hyaluronic acid injections are sometimes used to manage symptoms in earlier stages of arthritis. 4. Second opinion: If you feel your doctor is pushing for surgery too quickly, it’s always a good idea to seek a second opinion. Another specialist might offer alternative approaches before considering surgery. While hip replacement can be very successful and restore mobility, it’s natural to want to try other options first. Discuss all these possibilities with a healthcare professional to see what’s best for your goals, especially if you want to stay active with jogging, squatting, and running in the future.

El costo de un reemplazo total de cadera puede variar ampliamente según el país, el hospital, el cirujano y si tienes seguro médico. En promedio: • Estados Unidos: Puede costar entre $30,000 y $50,000 USD sin seguro, aunque con seguro los costos de bolsillo suelen ser mucho más bajos. • América Latina: En países como México, el costo puede estar entre $10,000 y $20,000 USD, dependiendo del hospital y los materiales. • Otros países: En lugares con sistemas de salud públicos o subvencionados, como España, el costo podría ser cubierto por el sistema nacional de salud. Es importante consultar con tu médico o el hospital para obtener un presupuesto específico y también verificar qué cubre tu seguro. Además, algunos programas o fundaciones pueden ofrecer asistencia financiera.
When it comes to total hip replacement, there are three main types of hip implants based on the materials used for the ball and socket components: 1. Metal-on-Polyethylene: This is one of the most common types of hip implants. The ball is made of metal (like cobalt-chromium or titanium) and the socket is made of a durable plastic called polyethylene. It’s known for its durability and has been widely used in hip replacements. 2. Ceramic-on-Ceramic: Both the ball and the socket are made from ceramic materials. These implants tend to last longer and produce less wear over time. However, they can be more expensive and carry a slight risk of the ceramic cracking or breaking. 3. Ceramic-on-Polyethylene: In this type, the ball is made of ceramic, and the socket is made of polyethylene. It combines the durability of ceramic with the versatility of plastic and is often used for younger patients or those looking for a longer-lasting solution. Each type has its pros and cons, and your surgeon will recommend the best option based on factors like your age, activity level, and the condition of your hip.
Ceramic implants (or a variation of ceramic and metal / ceramic and plastic) have begun to be used. There are benefits and drawbacks to the different kinds of implants.
Great observation! Cementing is actually a technique used in some hip replacements, but not all. In certain cases, especially with older patients or those with weaker bone structure, the surgeon may use bone cement to anchor the prosthetic parts-particularly the femoral stem-into the bone. The cement acts as a fast-drying adhesive that helps secure the implant. However, many modern hip replacements are cementless. In these cases, the prosthetic components are designed with a porous surface that allows the patient’s natural bone to grow into it over time, creating a strong, stable bond without the need for cement. The decision to use cement or go cementless depends on factors like the patient’s age, bone quality, and the surgeon’s preference.

It isn’t bad. I work in the OR and see at least 2 of these a week, they make the cavity for the implant into the femur with a thing called a broach and it’s just some taps to get it in and then out, then they go up in size until they are satisfied and then do the same with the implant itself.

What are the names of the 3 implants?
When it comes to total hip replacement, there are three main types of hip implants based on the materials used for the ball and socket components:
1. Metal-on-Polyethylene: This is one of the most common types of hip implants. The ball is made of metal (like cobalt-chromium or titanium) and the socket is made of a durable plastic called polyethylene. It’s known for its durability and has been widely used in hip replacements.
2. Ceramic-on-Ceramic: Both the ball and the socket are made from ceramic materials. These implants tend to last longer and produce less wear over time. However, they can be more expensive and carry a slight risk of the ceramic cracking or breaking.
3. Ceramic-on-Polyethylene: In this type, the ball is made of ceramic, and the socket is made of polyethylene. It combines the durability of ceramic with the versatility of plastic and is often used for younger patients or those looking for a longer-lasting solution.
Each type has its pros and cons, and your surgeon will recommend the best option based on factors like your age, activity level, and the condition of your hip.
Only metal?
Dont they have other alternative?
Ceramic implants (or a variation of ceramic and metal / ceramic and plastic) have begun to be used. There are benefits and drawbacks to the different kinds of implants.
Where is cementing
Great observation! Cementing is actually a technique used in some hip replacements, but not all. In certain cases, especially with older patients or those with weaker bone structure, the surgeon may use bone cement to anchor the prosthetic parts-particularly the femoral stem-into the bone. The cement acts as a fast-drying adhesive that helps secure the implant.
However, many modern hip replacements are cementless. In these cases, the prosthetic components are designed with a porous surface that allows the patient’s natural bone to grow into it over time, creating a strong, stable bond without the need for cement. The decision to use cement or go cementless depends on factors like the patient’s age, bone quality, and the surgeon’s preference.
😂😂😂 I heard with my own ears that it takes A LOT of force to get that spike down into the femur.
Is it “slightly hammered” into the bone ?
@@bertohernandez8928 forcefully hammered.
@@ChristCordogan ouch… I’ll be having this procedure done in the near near future ..not shake up about it.. truth be told , been in pain too long I’m ready for surgery
@@bertohernandez8928 I’m 16 days post surgery and very happy with my progress so far. Nothing like trading in 24/7/365 pain for the dissipating ache and discomfort of healing.
It isn’t bad. I work in the OR and see at least 2 of these a week, they make the cavity for the implant into the femur with a thing called a broach and it’s just some taps to get it in and then out, then they go up in size until they are satisfied and then do the same with the implant itself.
