When most people think about hip replacement, they often consider it a last-resort procedure reserved for individuals in their 70s or 80s. But that’s no longer the case. Today, it’s increasingly common for people in their 30s, 40s, and 50s to seek surgical solutions for hip pain that no longer responds to conservative care.
At MidJersey Orthopaedics in Flemington, Bridgewater, and Washington, New Jersey, our team of board-certified orthopedic surgeons specialize in advanced joint replacement procedures tailored to each patient based on age, lifestyle, and goals.
For patients dealing with issues such as sports injuries, chronic pain, and degenerative conditions, our team provides personalized, cutting-edge care to help you get back to doing what you love.
A total hip replacement places the damaged hip joint with a prosthetic joint designed to mimic natural movement. The artificial joint, typically composed of medical-grade metal and plastic, recreates the smooth ball-and-socket action that allows fluid motion.
If you’ve been struggling with unrelenting hip pain that hasn’t improved with physical therapy, injections, or activity modification, surgery may be the next step. Younger patients in their 30s or 40s are now candidates for hip replacement due to trauma, congenital joint disorders, or long-term joint degeneration.
A total hip replacement can be highly effective in relieving pain and restoring movement for a variety of conditions, including:
Surgery aims to relieve pain and restore balance, joint function, and range of motion. We also offer comprehensive recovery and rehabilitation services to help you heal fully and return to daily activities with confidence.
Older generations of hip implants weren’t built for younger, more active patients. They were prone to wearing out faster, especially under high physical demand. But today’s implants are made from highly durable materials that hold up better over time, even with an active lifestyle.
At MidJersey Orthopaedics, our surgeons use modern techniques and technology, including minimally invasive methods and computer-assisted planning, to ensure the best outcomes for younger patients. That means shorter recovery time, fewer complications, and longer-lasting results.
Robot-assisted surgery is changing the game for joint replacement. With this technology, surgeons can create a detailed 3D model of your hip anatomy and use robotic precision to perform surgery through smaller incisions. This leads to less tissue damage, less postoperative pain, and faster healing.
Our team uses this advanced approach to ensure the most accurate placement of your new hip joint. The result is improved joint function, better mobility, and a reduced chance of needing a revision surgery later.
You don’t have to put off treatment; if hip pain is disrupting your life, modern hip replacement surgery might be the solution, no matter your age. The surgeons at MidJersey Orthopaedics can assist you in weighing your options and moving toward a stronger, more active future.
