Our expert orthopaedic team uses the latest surgical techniques and technology to ensure effective outcomes and smooth recovery.
What is Hip Replacement Surgery?
Hip Replacement Surgery also known as hip joint replacement surgery or hip bone replacement is a process wherein an artificial implant is used to repair a sick or injured hip joint. This surgery is often recommended when other treatments, such as medications, physiotherapy, or lifestyle changes, fail to provide relief.
Long-term advantages of hip replacement include pain relief, improved joint function, and a general improvement in quality of life. At Lux Hospitals, our specialists provide traditional and minimally invasive techniques, depending on the patient’s condition.
Types of Hip Replacement
Hip replacement operations come in a variety of forms, depending on your condition:
- Total Hip Replacement: Prosthetic parts are used to replace the whole hip joint.
- Partial Hip Replacement: Usually done when only the femoral head (the ball part of the joint) is damaged.
- Hip Resurfacing: Bone-conserving procedure that reshapes and caps the femoral head.
- Minimally Invasive Hip Replacement: Involves smaller incisions for faster recovery.
Our orthopedic surgeons will help determine the best type based on your medical needs and lifestyle.
Diagnosis of Hip Replacement
Before recommending hip replacement surgery, our specialists perform a thorough diagnosis, including:
- Physical Examination: Assessing hip mobility, strength, and pain levels.
- X-rays & MRI: Imaging to examine the extent of damage to the hip joint.
- Medical History Review: Evaluating prior treatments, medications, and overall health.
- Blood Tests: To rule out infections or underlying conditions.
In addition to helping to customize the surgical plan, these diagnostic procedures guarantee that you are a good candidate for hip replacement surgery.
Preparation Before Hip Replacement Surgery
Once hip replacement surgery in Hyderabad is scheduled, proper preparation is crucial:
- Pre-operative Instructions: Fasting before surgery, stopping certain medications, etc.
- Fitness Assessment: Cardiac evaluation and other pre-surgical screenings.
- Home Preparation: Organize your home to support limited mobility post-surgery, such as installing handrails, raised toilet seats, etc.
- Physiotherapy Prehab: Some patients may benefit from strengthening exercises before surgery to aid recovery.
Procedure of Hip Replacement Surgery
At Lux Hospitals, our approach to Hip Replacement Surgery follows high standards of safety and precision. Here’s how the procedure generally unfolds:
- Anesthesia: You’ll receive general or spinal anesthesia to ensure you are pain-free during the procedure.
- Incision: A small incision is made over the hip joint to access the damaged area.
- Removal of Damaged Bone & Cartilage: The surgeon removes the worn-out or damaged femoral head and acetabulum (hip socket).
- Implant Placement: The prosthetic components usually a metal ball and a plastic or ceramic socket are securely fitted into place.
- Alignment & Positioning: The new joint is aligned correctly to match your anatomy and ensure smooth motion.
- Closure: A sterile dressing is placed and the incision is sealed with staples or sutures.
- Monitoring & Recovery: You’ll be moved to recovery for observation and then transferred to your hospital room.
Our advanced techniques minimize tissue damage, reduce complications, and promote quicker healing.
Hip Replacement Surgery Recovery Time
Recovery after hip replacement surgery varies, but most patients begin walking with assistance within a day or two. Full recovery can take 6 to 12 weeks, depending on age, health, and the type of surgery performed.
Our comprehensive recovery plan includes:
- Early Mobilization

Following the doctor’s advice will significantly reduce your hip replacement surgery recovery time and enhance long-term results.
