It is not a recommendation for women with...

Following on from last week's letter about the best ways to prevent and treat the pain and symptoms of arthritis, I've received a number of emails from people worried about the effectiveness and problems connected with hip replacement surgery. So, let's start with the facts: There are approximately 65,000 hip operations in the U.K. every year, all of which carry certain risks. In the past, it was difficult for those under 60 to receive a new hip as the lifespan of the replacement was only 10 to 15 years which meant there was the probability of replacements in the future. Thankfully, new techniques and materials can now provide a lifelong expectancy for the new hip. Added to that there are also many...
