Hip Bone

The hip joint is one of the most important joints in the human body, when damaged it limits mobility and in some cases immobilizes patients. The hip replacement procedure is one of the best inventions, it involves cutting/eliminating the damaged bone and cartilage with precision, thereafter we proceed to shaping the remaining bone so as to perfectly fit the artificial joint which we then secure in place with a specialized cement. This procedure can take upto 2 hours depending on several factors

🦵 Bones and Cartilage in the Knee Joint The knee joint is a complex structure where bones meet and cartilage provides cushioning. The femur (thighbone) connects with the tibia (shinbone), while the patella (kneecap) sits in front, protecting the joint. Articular cartilage coats the ends of the bones, allowing smooth movement, while the menisci provide extra cushioning to absorb shocks during movement. Our animated knee joint demonstrates how these structures work together to enable flexibility,

1. Increased Joint Mobility Passive hip circles help improve the range of motion in the hip joint by gently mobilizing the joint. This is particularly useful for individuals with restricted movement due to stiffness, injury, or surgery 2. Enhanced Blood Flow The gentle circular movement stimulates blood flow to the hip area, promoting healing by delivering oxygen and nutrients to tissues. Improved circulation also helps reduce inflammation and swelling 3. Reduced Muscle Tension The passive motio
