Hip Joint Pain

What is Hip Joint?
The hip joint is the largest ball-and-socket synovial joint in our body and also one of the largest weight-bearing joints of the body. This ball-and-socket joint helps you move your legs during everyday activities such as walking and climbing up and down the stairs. The hip joint consists of two main parts: Femoral head and Acetabulum. 

Femoral Head:          
It is the ball of the joint or the ball-shaped piece of bone at the top of the femur. It is almost spherical in shape and surrounded by articular cartilage all around. The femoral head size may range from 40 to 60 mm in diameter and varies with body mass. The thickness of the articular cartilage is about 4 mm superiorly and tapers to 3 mm at the periphery.

Acetabulum:
Acetabulum is a socket (concave depression) on the lower side of the pelvis where the femoral head fits into the acetabulum to form the hip joint. The ball is connected to the socket with bands of tissue called ligaments, which help in stabilizing the hip.
The femur is the longest and heaviest bone in the human body. It consists of a Proximal end, Shaft, Distal end. The socket of the hip joint called acetabulum is formed from parts of the ilium, ischium, and pubis.

Underlying Causes of Hip Joint Pain:
Hip joint pain is sore and most common in middle-aged women, however, the younger people are no exception to it and are equally affected these days. Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are among the most common causes of hip pain, especially in older adults aged 55 and above.

Navigation Joint Surgeon uses special instruments which are attached to the patients. Using the surgical navigation system (camera), the location and the movement of the patient’s knee/hip is tracked and navigated throughout the surgery. The system provides a feedback of the instrument location which is particularly useful in situations especially in minimally invasive surgeries where the surgeon cannot see the tip of the instrument.

Joint Replacement Surgery

Hip joint and knee joint replacements are helping people of all ages live pain- free, active lives. Joints are formed by the ends of two or more bones connected by tissue called cartilage. Healthy cartilage serves as a protective cushion, allowing smooth, low-friction movement of the joint. If the cartilage becomes damaged by disease or injury, the tissues around the joint become inflamed, causing pain. With time, the cartilage wears away, allowing the rough edges of bone to rub against each other, causing more pain. When only some of the joints are damaged, a surgeon may be able to repair or replace just the damaged parts. When the entire joint is damaged, a total joint replacement is done. To replace a total knee joint, a surgeon removes the diseased or damaged parts and inserts artificial parts, called prostheses or implants. Desired topics below to find out more.
