What Hip and Knee Replacement Care Involves
Hip and knee replacement is a service Mississippi Sports Medicine & Orthopaedic Center offers to active adults and athletes whose hip or knee joints have become a limiting factor in daily life or sport. This page describes what the service involves in general terms; whether it’s an appropriate option for you is a conversation to have directly with one of our providers.
- A visit that starts with a conversation about how your hip or knee is affecting your day to day activities
- A physical assessment and, when appropriate, imaging to help our provider understand your joint
- A clear explanation of options, timelines, and what recovery generally looks like
- Time for you to ask questions before any decisions are made
Every patient’s situation is different, so we don’t approach hip and knee replacement as a one-size-fits-all path. Some patients from Flowood come to us early, just wanting to understand their options. Others come after trying other approaches.
