Hip Replacement
Also called total hip arthroplasty, this is a surgical procedure that replaces the worn or damaged parts of the hip joint with smooth artificial components. It is usually recommended when hip pain and stiffness from arthritis or injury make it difficult to walk, sleep, or enjoy normal activities.
Revision Hip Replacement
A revision total hip replacement is a “redo” operation on a hip that already has an artificial joint. It may involve changing one part (for example, the cup or the stem) or the whole hip replacement, depending on the problem.

Proximal Hamstring Tears
A proximal hamstring tear is an injury where one or more of the hamstring tendons are torn from their attachment at the top of the thigh bone (ischial tuberosity), just below the buttock.

Gluteal Tendon Tears
A gluteal tendon tear is a partial or complete tear of the tendons that attach the gluteal muscles (Buttocks) to the hip bone. These tendons play an important role in hip stability and movement, and injury can lead to pain and weakness on the outside of the hip.

Greater Trochanteric Bursitis
Greater trochanteric bursitis is a common cause of pain on the outer side of the hip. It occurs when the bursa, a small fluid-filled sac that cushions the outer hip bone, becomes inflamed or irritated.

Avascular Necrosis of the Hip (AVN)
Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the hip occurs when the blood supply to the femoral head (the ball of the hip joint) is reduced or lost. Without blood, the bone tissue weakens and can collapse, leading to pain, stiffness, and arthritis.
