Pain after joint replacement: investigation, management and prevention
Joint replacement surgery is one of the most successful procedures in modern orthopaedics, helping thousands of patients in the UK regain mobility and reduce pain every year. However, a small proportion of patients continue to experience pain after surgery or develop symptoms months or years later. The key to managing a painful joint replacement is identifying the underlying cause through a systematic assessment. Once the diagnosis is established, treatment may range from physiotherapy and medication to advanced revision surgery. In many cases, modern imaging, computer-assisted planning and improved surgical techniques can successfully address the problem and restore function.
