FAQ

What Exactly is a Metal-on-Metal Hip Replacement Surgery?

Hip replacement surgery? What is that? It is likely you have heard of someone who has gotten an artificial hip, but how does that work? You are probably wondering how they give someone an artificial joint.

Truth is, this surgery is one of the most commonly performed orthopedic surgeries. There are a number of reasons someone might need a hip replacement. Orthopedic surgeons can assist their patients in determining if they are a good candidate for the surgery.

We will talk about several aspects of metal-on-metal hip replacements. First we will look at what symptoms might lead you to believe you need a hip replacement. Next, we will talk about the procedure itself and what you can expect. Lastly, we will talk about the recovery and what is involved in keeping up with your new hip implant.

Who Needs a Metal-on-Metal Hip Replacement?

There is a big difference between occasional bothersome hip pain and chronic hip pain. The kind of pain that hinders you from doing your every day activities is cause for concern.

If the patient has tried many other types of treatment for their chronic hip pain to no avail, it may be the best time to look into a hip replacement. Hip replacements are for those who have so much damage to their hip joint that an implant is the most beneficial.

What Happens with a Hip Replacement Surgery

You must be sure you are ready to deal with all that comes along with hip replacement surgery. Hip replacement surgery does come with some risks, such as blood clots, infection, blood loss, difference in leg length and other concerns. The metal-on-metal hip implant is put into place by removing parts of your hip joint and replacing it with the metal ball and socket of the joint.

Rehabilitation After Metal-on-Metal Hip Replacement Surgery

Just like any surgery involving joints, there is a period of rehabilitation. This will help you begin to move the hip and heal it from the surgery. Proper rehab is necessary and it starts immediately after the surgery. Keeping the joint moving is the best way to prevent problems.

Hip replacements typically last quite a few years, depending on which type of material is used. Metal-on-metal is fairly strong and tends to have less wear than other hip replacements. Only your orthopedic surgeon knows what choice of hip replacement is right for you.
