Complications after Joint Replacement Surgery

 Joint Replacement Surgery is a procedure of surgery in which damaged or arthritic joints are removed and replaced with a plastic or metal or ceramic device called prosthesis. The prosthesis replicates the movement of the joint that has been replaced helping the patient to continue to live a normal life with very minimal difficulty.

After the affected joint is replaced, the patient enjoys high quality of life, less pain and lives with better mobility. Just like any other surgery, incision pain and swelling are worse on the second and third days, and gradually get better in the next 1-2 weeks. Good care of the incision can result in quick recovery. More than 80% of the replaced prosthesis devices have been functioning even after 25 years of replacement.

However, there still can be some complications which are seen in less than 10% patients. These complications include:

·         Infection of Wound

·         Infection around the prosthesis

·         Blood clotting

·         Malfunction of the prosthesis due to any wear and tear, breakage, dislocation, or loosening

·         And the rarest of all, any kind of injury to nerves in the surrounding area

Such complications can be well checked in the very early days of occurrence. If you notice any signs of these problems, contact orthopedic surgeon Dr. Rahul Sharma Online at once.
