REPLACEMENT
Rejuvenate Your Musculoskeletal Health With Total Joint Treatment in Dallas
Joint health has primary importance in keeping a person up and running. You talk about walking, bending, even laughing and eating – one or more joints are involved hand in hand with bones to make simple activities in life possible.
If your joint pain, discomfort or inflammation has started affecting your personal and professional life, hindering your daily routine and recreational activities, it is time to think about it – more seriously!
What is total joint replacement?
Total joint replacement, or as we refer to arthroplasty in the medical terms, is a surgical method to replace a damaged or dysfunctional joint with an artificial one to restore health, mobility and long-range physical movement and relieve pain.
Arthroplasty is common with arthritis affecting knee and hip joints, shoulders and ankles. On the positive side, this surgery has helped patients reclaim their physical freedom, with frictionless mobility and pain free lifestyle, improved health and stronger endurance to sports and recreational activities.
Who should consider total joint replacement?
You might need a total joint replacement in case you have had or notice either of these six conditions:
- excruciating pain in your main joints that provide mobility i.e. hip, knees and ankles or shoulder.
- Injury, accident or fracture that directly affected one of your main joints
- loss of partial or total movement ability due to shock or trauma
- health conditions like arthritis, osteoarthritis, cervical
- joint destruction or degeneration, loss of cartilage due to age or a disease
- discomfort and difficulty hindering your routine physical movement

The answer varies depending on the joint that your doctor has replaced. In normal cases, we suggest patients to:

- Keep track of any pain or swelling and your body’s responses towards different post-surgery medicine and supplements.
What is the right age to get an arthroplasty done?
There is no right or wrong age for a total joint replacement. Patients of all ages opt for a total joint replacement surgery for several reasons. The average age, however, as we have noticed at Dallas Ortho is 35 years.
Are there any complications associated with a total joint arthroplasty?
Arthroplasty, or total joint replacement is one of the most effective surgeries with highest success ratios. There are no complications. Doctors usually conduct XRays, blood tests and diabetes examinations before recommending a surgery like this one. Some patients do experience pain and swelling after the surgery, and that’s a sign of recovery which goes within 3 weeks following the procedure.
