Hip pain can be caused by various conditions, including:
- Osteoarthritis
- Hip bursitis
- A hip sprain or fracture
- Tendonitis
- Rheumatoid arthritis
If you suffer with hip problems, you may have tried treatment options such as medication, heat therapy, or physiotherapy to help alleviate and manage your pain. For many people, these non-surgical treatments successfully reduce hip pain and help improve function and mobility. However, for others, non-invasive methods may not reduce or eliminate pain as effectively.
If you have not found relief through non-nvasive treatment options, you might benefit from surgery. At Werndale Hospital, we offer a range of effective procedures for people with hip pain. These are performed by caring and compassionate multidisciplinary teams of experts who always put your needs first.
Hip replacement surgery starting from £11,495*
Hip replacement surgery can eliminate pain and improve mobility in your hip joint.
Your Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon will recommend a hip replacement operation if you have significant damage to your hip caused by an accident or injury, or from a condition such as osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis.
Depending on your condition, you will undergo either partial hip replacement surgery (also known as a hemiarthroplasty), or total hip replacement surgery (also referred to as an arthroplasty). The procedure recommended will depend on the extent of damage inside your hip joint.
During total hip replacement surgery, both your femoral head (the top of your thigh bone) and acetabulum (the socket in your pelvis) will be removed and replaced with an artificial component. This is known as a prosthesis. During partial hip replacement surgery, only your femoral head will be replaced with a prosthesis.
Hip arthroscopy starting from £7,326*
Hip arthroscopy is a keyhole operation that helps diagnose and treat a range of problems that cause chronic hip pain. During this minimally invasive procedure, your Consultant will make a few small incisions in your hip. They will then insert a small camera to examine the inside of your joint and diagnose the cause of your hip pain. Some treatment options can be performed arthroscopically during this procedure, using specially designed surgical instruments inserted through the same small incisions.
Hip resurfacing surgery starting from £14,881*
During hip resurfacing, the damaged surfaces of your femur head (the top of your thighbone) and your acetabulum (the socket in your pelvis) will be reshaped and replaced with a cover. Hip resurfacing helps significantly reduce pain and improve your mobility.
