Joint Replacement
Get Back in the Game of Life!
Joint replacement surgery can help you live better by eliminating joint pain. Blue Ridge Orthopaedic & Spine Center can replace problem joints to help you live better with:
-
Hip replacement
-
Anterior hip replacement
-
Shoulder replacement
-
Knee replacement
Hip
The anterior hip replacement technique results in less pain, minimal dislocation risk, and quicker recovery. Most importantly, since the hip is immediately stable, it does not require any lifestyle modifications.
Knee
Over time, cartilage within the knee can wear away. As it does, the knee becomes stiff and painful. A knee prosthesis (artificial joint) can replace the painful joint and restore movement.
Shoulder
During shoulder replacement surgery, all or part of your problem shoulder is replaced with an artificial joint, called a prosthesis. The prosthesis replaces the rough, worn parts of your shoulder with smooth metal and plastic parts.
