The infographic titled "Common Types of Joint Replacement Surgeries" highlights various procedures designed to restore mobility and relieve pain in damaged joints. Hip replacement is one of the most common surgeries, where the deteriorated joint is replaced with an artificial implant made of metal, plastic, or ceramic, often used for severe arthritis or fractures.

Similarly, knee replacement involves replacing the knee joint with a prosthetic, either cemented or designed for natural bone integration. Shoulder replacement addresses damage in the ball-and-socket joint, using prosthetic components tailored to the patient’s needs. Elbow replacement, though more complex due to the joint’s intricate structure, helps restore movement when damage severely limits function. Wrist replacement is less common but provides pain relief for severe arthritis sufferers, improving flexibility.

Ankle replacement is recommended for those with advanced arthritis, replacing the damaged joint with a prosthetic to enhance movement. These procedures use advanced techniques and materials to significantly improve patients’ quality of life.
