Conditions and Treatments Offered:-

1. Total Knee Replacement Surgery

If a patient’s knee is severely damaged by arthritis or secondary to any injury, it may be difficult for them to perform everyday activities, such as climbing stairs or walking. After a period, they may even begin to feel pain while sitting or lying down. When non-surgical treatments prove no longer to be helpful, the doctor may advise the patient to undergo a total knee replacement surgery. It is a safe procedure that helps in pain relief, corrects leg deformity and helps the patient resume normal activities.
Also known as knee arthroplasty, total knee replacement surgery is offered only in the best hospitals in Delhi. There are four steps to total knee replacement surgery. These steps include preparation of the bone, positioning the metal implants, resurfacing the patella and inserting a spacer. Before a total knee replacement surgery is performed, Orthopaedicians do an evaluation of the medical history, conduct a physical examination, X-rays and other tests like MRI and blood tests. The doctor then reviews the results and discusses with the patient if total knee replacement surgery is the best option in their case to improve function and relieve pain. Other treatment options include physical therapy, medications, injections and other types of surgery. Diligently following the surgeon’s instructions after the procedure and taking care of knee replacement and general health are important and necessary to contribute to the success of the total knee replacement surgery.

Numerous conditions can lead to joint pain and disability and cause patients to think about undergoing joint replacement surgery. In many cases, damage to the cartilage causes joint pain. This damage can be either from arthritis, fracture, or any other condition. When non-surgical treatments like medication, change in lifestyle and physical therapy do not offer any relief in the condition, the doctor may recommend joint replacement surgery.

Before the surgery, the doctor will explain the patient about potential risks and complications of total joint replacement, including those related to the surgery itself and those that can occur after the surgery. Joint replacement surgery takes a few hours. During the surgery, the damaged or injured cartilage and bone is detached from the joint and substituted with prosthetic components made of ceramic, plastic or metal. The prosthesis works like a normal joint and mimics its shape and movement. Regular exercise is an important part of the recovery process. The doctor or physical therapist will provide the patient with specific exercises to help restore movement and strengthen the joint.

2. Hip Replacement Surgery

Total hip replacement surgery intends to relieve hip pain and increase its function by resurfacing the bones that meet at the hip joint. The surgeon removes the femoral head and replaces it with the prosthesis. This prosthetic femur head is in the shape of a ball and fits seamlessly into the rounded cup prosthesis that becomes the new socket of the pelvis. If the hip is damaged by fracture, arthritis or any other condition, performing common activities like walking or getting in and out of a chair or bed may be problematic for the patient. The hip may be stiff and it may be hard to perform simple tasks like putting on shoes and socks. The patient may even not find comfort while resting. When changes in lifestyle, everyday activities, medications and walking support do not help in making the condition better, the doctor may recommend a hip replacement surgery. It is a safe surgery that effectively helps the patient by relieving pain, helping them to get back to normal, increasing motion and enjoying everyday activities.

Total Hip Replacement- Frequently asked questions

1. What is Arthritis?

A smooth, slippery, fibrous connective tissue called articular cartilage acts as a protective cushion between bones inside the joints. Arthritis develops as the cartilage begins to deteriorate or because of wear and tear as part of ageing or because of disease like Rheumatoid arthritis. As the articular cartilage is lost, joint space between the bones become narrow. This is an early sign of arthritis and can easily be detected using an X-Rays. Slowly over time the bone ends rub against each other and starts to wear away. This results in progressive pain and shortening. Normal activities like walking and running become painful and difficult. Common arthritis symptoms include pain, stiffness and some loss of joint motion deformity, limp and shortening of the limb.

2. Who develops arthritis?

Primary osteoarthritis typically affects people over 50 years of age and above, but nowadays it is commonly seen at younger ages also.
It is more common in persons who are overweight or obese or suffering from Rheumatoid arthritis or Anky losing spondylitis. In some patient’s arthritis tends to run in families and can be genetic. Other factors that can contribute to developing arthritis include injuries, developmental abnormalities like dysplastic hip and Perth’s disease.

3. What are the treatment options available for arthritis?

Conservative treatment does not play a significant role in the management of hip arthritis, once it has set in. Initial treatment includes medications for pain relief, weight control and physical therapy. If other options don’t work to produce a satisfactory response, one should consider a hip replacement.

4. Spinal Fractures or instability, prolapsed discs and radiculitis.

A spinal fracture (Paralysis) or spinal instability is a cause of abnormal movement between two vertebrae. This abnormality can lead to damage or pain in the nerves and spinal cord. Spinal fractures are mostly due to sports injuries, falls, car injuries and gunshots. Symptoms of a spinal fracture include numbness, back or neck pain, weakness, muscle spasm, paralysis, tingling and bowel or bladder changes. Doctors conduct X-rays, CT Scan and MRI to diagnose the severity of the situation. We perform spinal instrumentation, laminectomies and discectomies to relieve patient suffering such injuries or symptoms.
