What Is Total Hip Replacement?
What Is Total Hip Replacement?
Total hip replacement is a surgery in which the damaged parts of the hip joint are removed and replaced with artificial implant components. The hip is a ball-and-socket joint, and when it is severely damaged by arthritis or injury, even simple movements like walking or getting out of a chair become very painful.
During the surgery, the damaged femoral head (the ball) and the worn-out socket are replaced with smooth, durable implant parts. These new parts work together to recreate natural hip movement without the pain.
Total hip replacement is one of the most commonly performed and well-studied orthopaedic surgeries worldwide. When done by an experienced team in the right setting, it is safe and highly effective. Most patients experience a dramatic improvement in their quality of life after surgery.
Who Needs Total Hip Replacement?
Total hip replacement is recommended when hip pain significantly impairs daily life, and other treatments no longer provide sufficient relief. Our orthopaedic specialists at SGVP Holistic Hospital carefully evaluate each patient before recommending surgery.
Patients who are typically considered for total hip replacement include:
- Those with severe hip osteoarthritis, causing persistent pain and stiffness
- Patients with rheumatoid arthritis that has caused significant hip joint damage
- People with avascular necrosis, where blood supply loss has caused the femoral head to collapse
- Those suffering from hip pain due to old injuries or fractures that have led to post-traumatic arthritis
- Patients whose hip pain limits walking, climbing stairs, or sleeping comfortably
- Those who have tried physiotherapy, medications, and injections without lasting relief

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does total hip replacement surgery take?
Total hip replacement surgery typically takes 1 to 2 hours, depending on the complexity of the case and the surgical approach used. Pre-operative preparation and post-operative monitoring in the recovery area add additional time. Our experienced surgical team at SGVP Holistic Hospital works efficiently to minimise operating time while ensuring the highest standard of safety and accuracy.
Can both hips be replaced at the same time?
Yes, simultaneous bilateral hip replacement is possible for suitable patients with severe arthritis in both hips. However, this decision depends on the patient's overall health, cardiovascular fitness, and the severity of disease in each hip. In many cases, staged surgery, replacing one hip first and the second 3 to 6 months later, is recommended for a safer and more manageable recovery.
How long does recovery take after total hip replacement?
Most patients begin walking with a frame the day after surgery. Return to light daily activities is typically possible within 6 to 8 weeks. Full recovery, including return to low-impact activities like walking and swimming, generally takes 3 to 6 months. Consistency with physiotherapy significantly influences how quickly and completely patients regain their mobility.
How long does a hip implant last?
Modern hip implants are designed to last 15 to 25 years or more with proper care and activity management. Longevity depends on the implant materials used, the patient's weight and activity level, and the accuracy of the implant's positioning during surgery. Regular follow-up with your surgeon helps detect any early signs of wear or loosening before they become significant.
Is total hip replacement painful?
The surgery itself is performed under anaesthesia, so patients do not feel pain during the procedure. After surgery, some discomfort is expected and is managed effectively with medications. Most patients are surprised by how much better their hip feels once the initial recovery period passes, particularly compared to the severe pain they had before surgery.
What activities should I avoid after total hip replacement?
High-impact activities, including running, jumping, and contact sports, are generally avoided long-term to protect the implant. Low-impact activities like walking, swimming, and cycling are well tolerated and encouraged. Specific hip precautions in the early weeks after surgery, such as avoiding crossing the legs or bending the hip beyond 90 degrees, are explained clearly before discharge.
