  You will need an X-ray of your knee. This will show the doctor if the space between your thigh and shinbones has gotten smaller.

To make sure you do not have rheumatoid arthritis, your doctor may do blood tests, or test fluid from your joint if it is swollen.

  The direct anterior approach is one option for performing minimally invasive hip replacement surgery (total hip arthroplasty), by exposing the front (anterior) side of the hip.

It has been utilized for over 30 years.

  When knee pain from arthritis becomes disabling, knee replacement becomes a reasonable treatment option. Knee joints can either be totally or partially replaced depending on your age, condition, and specific problem or injury.
