Total Hip Replacement (THR)

Total Hip Replacement (THR) is a surgical procedure where a damaged or arthritic hip joint is replaced with an artificial implant. The surgeon removes the worn-out ball-and-socket components and replaces them with metal, plastic, or ceramic parts to restore hip function. This surgery aims to relieve pain, improve mobility, and enhance quality of life for individuals with severe hip joint damage. Recovery typically involves physical therapy, and most patients experience significant improvement in movement and comfort following the procedure.
