Joint Preservation vs. Joint Replacement: What's the Difference?
When hip, knee or shoulder pain begins interfering with the activities you enjoy, it's natural to wonder whether joint replacement may eventually be necessary. For some patients, the answer is yes.

Orthopaedic care isn't simply a choice between living with joint pain and having a joint replacement. Instead, treatment often exists on a spectrum, with the goal of selecting the right option based on the cause and severity of your symptoms, the condition of the joint, and how pain or limited mobility affects your life.
