While there is no cure for arthritis, there are many ways to help alleviate the pain. Conservative treatments for arthritis include activity modifications, rest, heat and cold therapy, physical therapy, bracing and anti-inflammatory medications.
When conservative treatments fail, and the arthritis begins to negatively impact your life on a daily basis, it may be time to consider surgery.
Some of the safest, proven, state of the art surgical techniques provided by our fellowship-trained hip surgeons include:
- Hip arthroscopy
- Hip resurfacing
- Total hip replacement
- Revision total hip replacement
