Arthroplasty

Arthroplasty is a surgical procedure that aims to restore the function of a joint by replacing or repairing it. It is commonly performed on knees and hips affected by arthritis, injury, or wear and tear. The surgery involves removing damaged joint surfaces and replacing them with artificial components, called prosthetics, to relieve pain and improve mobility. Arthroplasty can significantly enhance the quality of life for individuals suffering from joint issues, allowing them to return to activities that may have been difficult or impossible due to pain or stiffness. Recovery often involves rehabilitation to regain strength and flexibility.
