Best Surgeons for Joint Replacement surgery in India
Joint replacement surgery is a procedure that includes knee replacement, hip replacement, hand-joint replacement, shoulder-elbow transplant etc. This procedure is commonly done after the tissue gets worn out of the joints due to some serious injuries like fracture, arthritis, swelling or inflammation.
In joint replacement, specialized medical techniques are used for operating the joints that are worn out or have suffered severe damages. Artificial joints are created by grafting joints, which are made of plastic, ceramic, and metals that resemble and work similar to original joints.
A patient who cannot move his joint freely, has stiffness in the joints, pain during movement even after continuous medication because of diseases like osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, joint fractures and infections, deformity etc. are advised to undergo these joint replacement operations.
