What Is Joint Replacement?

Joint replacement is a surgical procedure in which a damaged or diseased joint is removed and replaced with a prosthetic implant made of plastic, ceramic, or metal. The goal is to eliminate pain, restore function, and allow patients to return to the activities they enjoy.

Conditions Treated with Joint Replacement

Dr. Huang uses joint replacement to treat a range of musculoskeletal conditions, including:

Avascular necrosis (bone death caused by poor blood supply)

Fractures

Osteoarthritis

Hip dysplasia and other structural joint abnormalities

Rheumatoid arthritis

Contact NY Partners Orthopedics if you have persistent joint pain, stiffness, or swelling that does not improve with medication or lifestyle changes.

Preparing for Joint Replacement Surgery

Before surgery, Dr. Huang completes a thorough preoperative evaluation. Depending on your age and medical history, he may recommend physical therapy, dietary changes, or a supervised exercise program in the weeks leading up to the procedure. You will also undergo standard preoperative testing, which may include bloodwork, urinalysis, and an electrocardiogram. Be sure to inform Dr. Huang of all medications and supplements you take, as some may need to be paused before surgery.

Recovery After Joint Replacement

After surgery, most patients remain in the hospital for one to two days, depending on which joint was replaced. Some pain, swelling, and sensitivity are normal during early recovery. Getting adequate rest, keeping the joint elevated, taking medications as prescribed, and attending all physical therapy appointments will support a smooth recovery.
