How do I know when I need revision hip replacement?
If you have unrelieved pain in the hip that was replaced, your orthopedic surgeon can detect and determine whether you need a hip revision procedure using regular X-ray examinations. If a problem is detected, i.e. if the X-rays show damage has occurred to the hip replacement causing its failure, you may need to have a revision surgery before a major problem develops.
