Are You a Total Joint Candidate?

Are you experiencing any of the following?

• Persistent joint pain that limits your daily activities
• Difficulty walking, climbing stairs, or performing routine tasks
• Pain that disrupts your sleep or doesn’t improve with medication
• Stiffness or swelling that affects mobility

If these symptoms are keeping you from living your best life, it might be time to consider joint replacement surgery.

What Happens in a Joint Replacement Surgery?

In a total joint replacement surgery, a damaged joint—typically a hip, knee, or shoulder—is removed and replaced with a prosthetic implant made of metal, plastic, or ceramic. This procedure alleviates pain, restores mobility, and improves quality of life for patients with severe joint damage.
