Who Needs Joint Replacement Surgery

The main reason people need joint replacement surgery is arthritis, which is caused by wear and tear to your joints.

Joint pain can limit your ability to work, exercise, and do the activities you enjoy. With the correct diagnosis and an individualized treatment plan, you can get back to living your life to the fullest.

We typically start with medications, therapeutic injections, and physical therapy. When those are no longer helpful, we may consider surgery. Talk to your doctor to learn about the different options and decide what’s right for you.
