Matis Hospital provides orthopedic evaluation and treatment for patients with damaged or severely worn joints. Joint replacement may be considered when pain, stiffness or reduced movement affects daily activities and other treatment options are not providing sufficient relief. The treatment plan depends on the affected joint, severity of damage, symptoms, overall health and the assessment of the orthopedic specialist.
Joint replacement involves removing damaged portions of a joint and replacing them with artificial components. Depending on the condition, replacement surgery may be considered for different joints, including:
The type of replacement and surgical approach are selected according to the patient’s condition and clinical requirements.
Joint replacement is not required for every patient with joint pain. Depending on the condition, treatment may initially include medicines, physiotherapy, activity modification or other non-surgical approaches.
Surgery may be considered when joint damage is significant and symptoms continue to affect movement, daily activities or quality of life despite appropriate non-surgical treatment.
Before surgery, the orthopaedic specialist may assess the joint through physical examination and relevant imaging or other investigations. After joint replacement, rehabilitation and physiotherapy may be recommended to support movement and functional recovery. The recovery process varies depending on the joint treated, type of procedure and individual patient factors.
