Orthopedics is a health condition whose presentation and severity can vary between patients. A clinician considers the reported symptoms, medical history, physical examination, relevant risk factors and appropriate investigations rather than relying on one symptom or test alone.

What are the symptoms and health risks of Orthopedics?

Symptoms and health effects of Orthopedics depend on the underlying cause, duration and severity. A person may have condition-related symptoms, reduced function or complications, while some people have few obvious symptoms. New, worsening or severe symptoms should be discussed with a qualified clinician; symptoms alone do not establish a diagnosis.

How is Orthopedics diagnosed?

Assessment for Orthopedics usually starts with a detailed history and examination. Depending on the concern, the clinician may review previous records, order blood tests, imaging or other condition-appropriate investigations, and arrange specialist review. The diagnosis and treatment plan should be based on the complete clinical picture and not on an online page alone.

How is Orthopedics treated?

Treatment for Orthopedics depends on the confirmed diagnosis, severity, cause, overall health and treatment goals. It may include observation or lifestyle and supportive care, medicines, rehabilitation, specialist monitoring, or a procedure such as Orthopedics when clinically appropriate. A specialist should explain expected benefits, limitations, alternatives and risks.

Can Orthopedics be treated without a procedure?

Many patients with Orthopedics may first be considered for non-surgical care, such as monitoring, medicines, rehabilitation, nutrition or activity changes, symptom management and treatment of related health issues. Whether this is suitable depends on the diagnosis and response to care; non-surgical treatment should not be stopped or changed without medical advice.

When is Orthopedics considered for Orthopedics?

Orthopedics may be considered only when it is appropriate for the confirmed diagnosis and the expected benefit outweighs the individual risks. The decision may depend on symptom severity, investigation results, previous treatment, overall health and the patient's goals. A specialist should discuss alternatives and recovery before any procedure is planned.

Which doctor treats Orthopedics?

Orthopedics is commonly assessed by a Orthopedics specialist. Depending on the diagnosis, a radiologist, physician, surgeon, rehabilitation professional or other member of a multidisciplinary team may also contribute. The appropriate doctor depends on the symptoms, confirmed diagnosis and whether a procedure is being considered.

How do I choose a doctor for Orthopedics?

Compare a Orthopedics doctor's experience with Orthopedics, the type of cases they manage, relevant procedure experience where applicable, hospital affiliation, diagnostic approach, multidisciplinary support and follow-up plan. Ask which treatment options fit your diagnosis and what information the doctor needs before giving an opinion.

What documents do international patients need to share for a medical evaluation?

Share a concise medical summary, symptom timeline, previous diagnoses, investigation and imaging reports, procedure or biopsy reports where relevant, current medicines, allergies and related treatment records. Provide clear copies with translations when needed. The reviewing doctor may request additional information before giving an opinion.

About the Procedure

What is Bilateral Hip Replacement Surgery?

Bilateral hip replacement surgery involves replacing both hip joints, usually damaged by severe osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis, or inflammatory arthritis, with artificial prosthetic implants. It is recommended when both hips cause disabling pain and stiffness that no longer respond to medication or physiotherapy. The procedure can be performed as a single combined surgery or in two staged operations, restoring mobility and significantly improving quality of life.

Who may be considered?

Bilateral Hip Replacement Surgery may be considered after a qualified specialist reviews your reports and medical history. Suitability varies from person to person and must be assessed by your treating doctor.

How does it work?

Both hip joints are replaced in a single anesthesia session, reducing overall hospital stay and rehabilitation time compared to two separate surgeries.

3 approaches available for this procedure:

Simultaneous (Single-Stage) Bilateral Hip Replacement

Comprehensive Investigations

Estimated cost: $300 - $700

X-ray of both hips, MRI or CT scan, CBC, blood grouping, coagulation profile, kidney and liver function tests, ECG, echocardiography, bone density scan

Treatment / Procedure Estimate

Estimated cost in India: $9,500 - $13,500

Stay in India

Pre-procedure stay (outside hospital): ~2 days

Hospitalisation: ~7-9 days

Recovery period (outside hospital): ~4-6 weeks recommended

Total stay: approx 6-8 weeks

Usually Included in Hospital Package

Surgeon, anesthetist and OT charges
Both hip implants (standard quality)
ICU and ward stay as per package
Physiotherapy sessions during admission
Standard pre-op investigations

Usually Not Included

Premium/ceramic implant upgrade
Airport transfer and accommodation for attendant
Post-discharge medications
Extended rehabilitation or home physiotherapy
Visa and travel costs

Recovery and follow-up

Patients typically begin walking with support within 1-2 days after surgery, with a structured physiotherapy program continuing for 6-8 weeks; most return to normal daily activities within 2-3 months, with full recovery taking up to 6 months.

Risks

As with any major joint surgery, risks include infection, blood clots (DVT/PE), implant loosening or dislocation, leg length discrepancy, and anesthesia-related complications, which are more closely monitored when both hips are operated simultaneously.

Alternatives

Non-surgical alternatives such as physiotherapy, weight management, pain medications, and intra-articular injections may temporarily relieve symptoms, but they do not correct severe joint damage; a single-hip replacement staged with delayed treatment of the second hip may also be considered for patients unfit for combined surgery.

What we need to prepare a formal estimate

Share whatever you have — the care team will confirm the final checklist after reviewing your case.

Kidney and liver function test reports
ECG and echocardiography report (especially for patients over 50)
List of current medications and known allergies

Duration and severity of symptoms in each hip
History of diabetes, hypertension, heart or lung disease
Any previous hip surgery, fracture, or joint replacement
Current medications, including blood thinners
Smoking, alcohol use, and anesthesia-related history
Preferred timing: single-stage vs staged surgery
