What is a hip replacement surgery?

It is one of the most successful replacements in the medical industry. In the surgery, the parts of the hip joint are replaced by artificial implants. You can either opt for total hip replacement surgery or partial replacement hip replacement surgery, depending upon the damage. Through the procedure, you can resume your daily activities and exercise freely without feeling excruciating pain.
