Hip Pain
Report
Your joints are involved in almost every activity you do. Movements such as walking, bending and turning require the use of your hip and knee joints. When your hip becomes diseased or injured, the resulting pain can severely limit your ability to move and work. Osteoarthritis (OA) is sometimes called degenerative arthritis because it is a "wearing out" condition involving the breakdown of cartilage and bones.

Report
We understand that making sure you know what to expect from your joint replacement experience is important to you. As you are reading through this material, if you have additional questions please reach out to us to discuss. Each patient is unique, and can experience joint pain for different reasons.
Shoulder Replacement
Report
Orthopedic surgeons perform total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) to treat severe shoulder pain and lack of motion. During TSA surgery, the surgeon replaces diseased and injured joint components with medical-grade implants designed to appear similar to our normal, healthy shoulder joint. The four important soft tissue stabilizers of the shoulder (often referred to as the rotator cuff) must be functioning well to support the TSA procedure.
Knee
Report

Hand & Wrist
Report
To get a better idea of why your wrist hurts, take a look at how it works. Your wrist moves in many ways and helps provide the hand with very finely detailed movements: it flexes and extends, it turns out and turns in, and even moves in a circle. When they're working well, you don't think about the eight carpal bones of your upper hand, the two bones of your forearm, or all the soft tissue helping them work well together at the wrist.
