Hip Pain/ Hip Surgery Westchester, NY

Aging takes its toll on the body - especially on our joints. The wear and tear of use, and osteoporosis, can all have an effect on bone health. Osteoporosis can cause fractures in older people from even everyday activities. Even a small fracture to the hip can change the quality of your life. Fewer than 50% of those with a hip fracture return to their former level of activity. Recovering from a hip fracture can be difficult, and requires the care of an experienced group of surgeons like those at Lawrence Hospital Center near White Plains, NY.

A hip fracture is considered a medical emergency. Therefore, if suspected, you should be seen right away. Hip replacement surgery is the most common treatment for advanced hip osteoarthritis, but active patients may be candidates for hip resurfacing surgery.
