Hip Replacement

Total Hip Replacement: Restoring Freedom of Movement

Walk Without Limits. Live Without Pain. Chronic hip pain from arthritis, fractures, or Avascular Necrosis (AVN) can make even the simplest tasks—like getting out of a chair or putting on shoes—feel impossible. At KneeHospital.com, we specialize in advanced hip reconstruction designed to restore your natural range of motion and return you to an active lifestyle.

When to Consider Hip Replacement

Surgery is a significant decision. We typically recommend a consultation if you experience:

  • Persistent Pain: Hip or groin pain that continues even while resting or at night.
  • Stiffness: Difficulty walking or bending the hip to perform daily activities.
  • Failure of Alternatives: When medications, physical therapy, and walking supports no longer provide adequate relief.

The Procedure: Precision & Customization

Hip replacement involves removing damaged bone and cartilage and replacing them with a high-performance prosthetic joint. Every surgery is tailored to your unique anatomy, considering your age, weight, and activity goals.

Specialized Expertise in Avascular Necrosis (AVN)

In India, Avascular Necrosis is a common cause of hip disability. Dr. AB Govindaraj has extensive experience in managing AVN through both joint-preserving techniques and definitive hip replacement, ensuring that even younger patients can achieve long-lasting, pain-free results.

The Road to Recovery

Our "Rapid Recovery" protocol focuses on getting you moving as soon as possible:

  • Early Mobilization: You will typically begin assisted walking with a walker or crutches within 24 hours of surgery.
  • Structured Rehab: A personalized physical therapy program to regain strength and flexibility.
  • Long-Term Success: With 40 years of experience, Dr. Govindaraj utilizes surgical techniques and "gold standard" implants (Metal-on-Poly or Ceramic-on-Poly) to maximize the longevity of your new joint.
