JAMMU, July 1: Dr Avtar Singh of Amandeep Hospital today said that with bilateral total hip replacement, one can do regular works like a normal person without any pain.
He informed that recently they performed this bilateral total hip replacement surgery on a patient namely Surinder Sharma (58 years) resident of Jammu, who is working with Government Medical College, as he was having pain in his legs, especially thighs from last few months.
Dr Avtar said that the patient consulted several doctors in Jammu, who could not properly diagnose him and just advised simple pain killer medicines, which only provides temporary relief. “Recently, he met with me at Jammu OPD, where I checked his reports and after investigation he was diagnosed with bilateral Total Hip Replacement”, Dr Avtar said.
“Earlier Surinder Sharma was having hesitation but when I clarified him that no other treatment is available for this and his pain will increase day-by-day, then he agreed. On March 17, he was operated by me and my team at Amandeep Hospital, Amritsar, where his both hip joints were replaced with latest technology dual mobility joints”, Dr Avtar informed.
He said that the patient was able to walk with the help of walker the very next day and after 6 days he was discharged from hospital with an advice to rest for one month. “Now, after almost three and half months, he is absolutely fit and doing his normal routine jobs. He is able to exercise quickly, can even dance, ride a cycle or bike perfectly”, Dr Avtar further added.
Dr Avtar Singh informed that that the hip implants which are fixed to Surinder Singh are “Dual Mobility Joints”, which can turn at 360 degree which helps one sit easily with folded legs and do his regular works as a normal person. He said these joints are more durable and can last for 40-50 years.
