Hip Replacement Surgery in Dubai
Total hip replacement is a surgical procedure that involves removing damaged or diseased parts of the hip joint and replacing them with artificial components. Dr Paul Macnamara is one of the busiest hip replacement surgeons in Dubai, and regularly sought by both domestic and international patients.
During the surgery Dr Paul will remove the damaged portions of the joint, including the head of the femur and the socket of the hip bone, and replace them with metal or ceramic components that are secured to the bones.
Hip Replacement Recovery
After the surgery, the patient will spend several days in the hospital, during which time they will receive pain medication and physical therapy to help regain strength and mobility in the hip.
The overall recovery period after a Hip Replacement can take several weeks to several months, depending on the individual and the complexity of the surgery. During this time you will be given a rehabilitation program that includes exercises to strengthen the muscles around the hip and improve flexibility. It’s important to follow this program.
