Joint replacement surgery :
Joint replacement surgery is an advanced procedure for treating severe joint damage and advanced wear, particularly in the knee, hip, and shoulder. In this surgery, damaged bone and cartilage are replaced with artificial components (prostheses) to improve joint function. It is usually recommended when non-surgical treatments are ineffective, and the patient experiences severe pain and mobility restrictions. The primary goal is to reduce pain, enhance joint movement, and improve the patient's quality of life. With post-operative care and regular physiotherapy, many patients can return to their daily activities.
Adequate rest in the initial days after surgery.- Regular physiotherapy exercises.
- Avoid sudden movements and excessive pressure on the joint.
- Use assistive devices such as walkers and canes until full balance recovery.
- Care for the surgical site to prevent infection.
