Hip Replacement in the Elderly
Expert Care by Dr. Ritesh Dang – Senior Orthopedic Surgeon in Delhi
As we age, our joints naturally undergo wear and tear. For many elderly individuals, the hip joint becomes a major source of chronic pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility, especially due to osteoarthritis, fractures, or other degenerative conditions. When medication and physiotherapy no longer provide relief, Hip Replacement Surgery can offer a new lease on life.
