Total joint replacement is a surgical procedure that involves replacing damaged parts of a joint with a prosthesis made of metal, plastic, or ceramic. It is often recommended for joint pain and disability caused by conditions such as arthritis, fractures, or other conditions that cannot be relieved by non-surgical treatments like medications, physical therapy, or changes to daily activities. While hip and knee replacements are the most commonly performed joint replacements, other joints like the ankle, wrist, shoulder, and elbow can also be replaced.
