Hip Pain in Lancaster? Here’s What to Know About Hip Replacement

Hip pain slowing you down? Learn when hip replacement makes sense — and how Lancaster patients are recovering faster with modern surgical care.

When Hip Pain Becomes a Daily Problem

If your hip pain is affecting your sleep, limiting your steps, or keeping you from the things you love — it’s time for answers. You don’t have to wait until the pain is “unbearable.”

For many in Lancaster, hip replacement offers a way forward.

Is Hip Replacement Right for You?

You may be ready for surgery if you’re experiencing:

  • Constant pain that limits walking, work, or daily activity

  • Arthritis or degeneration seen on imaging

  • Pain that hasn’t improved with injections, PT, or medication

  • Difficulty putting on shoes or socks

  • A limp or uneven gait from hip stiffness or instability

Modern joint replacement is safer, faster, and more personalized than ever.
