How do you know if you are a candidate for hip replacement surgery?
If chronic hip pain is stealing your joy—making every step a struggle, keeping you off the golf course, or turning simple daily activities into ordeals—it’s time to ask:
Could hip replacement surgery give you your life back?
Years of walking, running, sports, or even normal wear and tear can quietly damage the hip joint. Over time, cartilage wears away, bones rub together, and arthritis sets in, turning movement into constant discomfort. You don’t have to live with that pain. At The Center for Bone and Joint, our experienced, board-certified orthopedic surgeons specialize in restoring mobility and eliminating hip pain—so you can move freely again.
When Is It Time to Consider Hip Replacement?You may be a strong candidate for hip replacement if:
- Severe osteoarthritis has progressively worsened, causing persistent pain that limits your daily life.
- Conservative treatments—physical therapy, medications, injections, or lifestyle changes—no longer provide meaningful relief.
- Pain interferes with sleep, work, or the activities you love.
- Stiffness makes it hard to walk, climb stairs, or even stand up from a chair.
- Traumatic injury, such as a hip fracture, or advanced bone conditions have compromised the joint.
We commonly treat patients with osteoarthritis, the most frequent reason for hip replacement. While osteoporosis (which weakens bones and increases fracture risk) is different, it can sometimes contribute to hip issues that require surgical intervention. Whatever the cause, an accurate diagnosis is the critical first step.
Many years of repetitive motion like walking, running, stretching, playing golf, and normal daily activities can, overtime, cause discomfort. The hip joint can develop arthritis and become painful. Therefore, it is important to get an assessment of your hip so you can make an informed decision about the best treatment plan for your situation. At The Center for Bone and Joint, our surgeons have many years of experience in treating arthritis and hip pain successfully. This includes conservative treatment up to total hip replacement surgery. By getting a professional assessment, the medical staff will be able to determine the best course of treatment.
