“It might be the answer to your pain.”

Joan’s Story

What was life like before joint replacement?
I had intense pain in my groin area before I had my hip replaced.

What was the turning point for you?
My doctor convinced me to move forward with surgery when he told me he could make me better.

How has joint replacement changed your life?
Now that I have a new hip, it feels better. I’m still healing, so sometimes there is burning on the inside, and when I lie on my left side, there is a dull ache.

What advice would you give others considering joint replacement?
Joint replacement might be the answer to your pain.
