Joint Replacement
What gives your body the power to bear itself is your skeletal system. However, joints, where two bones meet, are what offer us the stability, versatility and mobility necessary. Joints, which consist of bones, cartilage, ligaments and tendons, support the body’s weight and help you move. Any damage to any of your joints would naturally have an effect on your movement. No matter how small the joint is, it can be very tough to deal with an injury.

What Is a Joint Replacement Surgery?
Joint replacement surgery, also known as replacement arthroplasty, is a joint surgery operation in which a dysfunctional or decayed joint is replaced with a metal or plastic artificial joint. A joint replacement surgery is recommended at Sri Sai Ram orthopaedic hospital only when the health condition is very large and can not be cured alone with medications and physiotherapy.

Why would you need a surgical replacement?
For either of the two causes, you will need a joint replacement surgery; one, your joint is diseased; two, you have damaged or broken your joint or a portion of it. Dr. Vemula Rajkumar will evaluate your condition and let you know if an operation is needed. In particular, it aims to provide you with greater mobility and decreased pain through joint replacement surgery. He’s also attentive to the cosmetic effects.
WHO'S doing the surgery?
A very complicated and delicate operation is joint replacement surgery. Such an operation can only be performed by a licensed orthopaedic surgeon. Dr. Vemula Rajkumar takes charge of complex procedures at Sri Sai Ram Orthopaedic Hospital. He is the best orthopaedic surgeon in Khammam and beyond, having taken his qualifying exams from the best universities in India and with 3 years of experience. For a surgeon like him, joint replacement operations are part of his everyday routine, ranging from knuckles to knees.
What joints can be substituted?
As they bear much of the body weight, the knee and hip are the joints that sustain the most injury. Therefore, at Sri Sai Ram orthopaedic hospital, Knee Joint Replacement and Hip Joint Replacement operations are most frequently performed. This is followed by Khammam’s Shoulder Joint Replacement. Smaller joints may be substituted, however, such as knees, hips, wrists and even knuckles. Nothing is unlikely with the right doctor and with the right medical equipment.
Types of joint replacement surgery
A joint replacement operation may be of two kinds, complete and partial, depending on the extent of the injury. As the names indicate, the whole joint is replaced in a complete joint replacement and a partial joint replacement is carried out where only a portion of the joint is weakened that is stable in the other portion and is not at any risk of degeneration.
If the first surgery fails or appears to be ineffective or wears out, another type, called revision surgery, is performed. It’s a slightly more complicated operation. Our specialist surgeon, Dr. Vemula Rajkumar, conducts all sorts of replacement surgeries at Sri Sai Ram orthopedic hospital.
What are the complications of surgery for joint replacement?
A degree of risk is involved in all surgeries. Dr. Vemula Rajkumar is very vigilant with regard to the fundamental possible risks of bleeding, infection, etc. Not only is he diligent with the surgery, he will also give you detailed post-operative treatment suggestions so that later on you don’t experience complications. However, you would like to be told of the possible health hazards by every good doctor and Dr. Vemula rajkumar is no exception. Even if a procedure is performed after careful examination, because the implant is an artificial entity, the artificial joint will be rejected by your body and the replacement surgery will fail.
Sri Sai Ram orthopedic Hospital is stocked with the most up-to-date medical instruments and surgical equipment. Dr. Vemula Rajkumar also recommends that you take your medications regularly and take physiotherapy seriously to reduce the chances of blood clotting. The rate of success of joint replacement procedures has improved enormously with minimally invasive surgical methods and computer-assisted surgeries. With joint replacement surgery, you can recover quicker and walk easier. You can now forget every sort of disability.
