Had a Hip or Knee Replacement in Logan? Here’s When a Revision Might Be Needed

Something’s Not Right After Joint Replacement?

If you’re in Logan and dealing with pain, instability, or limited movement after a past hip or knee replacement, it’s not something to ignore. Revision surgery may be the answer — and it starts with a clear diagnosis.

Signs a Revision Might Be Necessary

  • Increasing pain after an initial period of improvement

  • Loosening or shifting of the implant

  • Swelling or warmth around the joint

  • Difficulty walking, standing, or trusting the joint

  • Suspected infection

These issues deserve expert attention, not guesswork.

Dr. Collins: Fellowship-Trained in Complex Revision Cases

Revision surgery requires precision, judgment, and experience. Dr. Kristopher Collins brings advanced training and a calm, collaborative approach to even the most complex revision cases. Whether it’s implant wear, infection, or loosening — you’ll get honest answers and a plan you can trust.

Local Care with Big-Center Expertise

Revision joint surgery isn’t one-size-fits-all. Dr. Collins works with each patient to determine:

  • What’s causing the issue (with appropriate imaging, labs, or aspiration)

  • What type of revision is needed (full, partial, liner exchange, etc.)

  • How to maximize pain relief and protect the joint long-term

All of this — without the need to drive to Columbus or a university hospital.

Faster Recovery. Early Weightbearing. Short Stays.

Many revision procedures are done with short hospital stays, early mobility, and a focus on pain control. The goal is the same as your first surgery: a stable joint that lets you live fully.
