What Is Hip Replacement Surgery?

Total hip replacement removes the damaged ball-and-socket joint surfaces and replaces them with precision-engineered implants, relieving pain and restoring movement when the joint is severely affected by arthritis, injury, or degeneration.

Dr. Om Baghele has performed around 200 hip replacement surgeries, with experience spanning patients across a wide age range — including his youngest hip replacement patient, who was just 22 years old.

  • Persistent groin, hip, or thigh pain affecting daily activity
  • Significant stiffness or reduced range of motion in the hip
  • Difficulty walking, climbing stairs, or rising from a seated position
  • Pain continuing despite medication, physiotherapy, or activity changes
  • X-ray evidence of advanced joint damage or degeneration

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I actually need hip replacement surgery?

The decision is based on several factors: the severity of your pain, the impact on daily life, X-ray findings showing the extent of joint damage, and whether adequate trials of conservative treatment have been completed without sufficient relief. Dr. Om Baghele will give you an honest, unhurried assessment of all your options — including non-surgical ones.

Can younger patients need hip replacement?

Yes. Age alone does not decide the need for surgery — the condition, severity, and impact on daily life are what matter. Dr. Om's youngest hip replacement patient was 22 years old.

What type of anaesthesia is used for hip replacement?

Most hip replacements are performed under spinal anaesthesia, which is safer for most patients and associated with fewer complications. General anaesthesia is used in specific cases. The anaesthesia plan is discussed with you in advance.

What if my previous hip replacement has failed?

Revision hip replacement can address a previous implant that has loosened, worn out, or developed complications.

How long do hip replacement implants last?

Modern hip replacement implants are designed to last 15–20 years or more in most patients.
