Joint replacement surgery is a medical procedure in which a damaged or worn-out joint is replaced with an artificial prosthesis made of materials like metal, plastic, or ceramic. This surgery is often recommended for individuals suffering from chronic joint pain, stiffness, or reduced mobility caused by conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or severe injuries. Common joints replaced include the hip, knee, and shoulder. The procedure can be life-changing, significantly reducing pain, restoring movement, and enhancing overall quality of life. Recovery involves physical therapy, with full rehabilitation typically taking several weeks to months.
