Hip replacement surgery explained
Hip replacement surgery, a common procedure where a damaged hip joint is substituted with an artificial one (known as an implant), offers a new lease on life to individuals suffering from debilitating hip pain.

Modern artificial hip joints are designed to last at least 15 years, significantly reducing pain and improving mobility for most patients.
