India joining the league of Joint Replacement Surgeries
India is the seventh-largest country by area and second-largest country by population in the world and has one of the youngest populations in the world, with an average age of 29. With both public and private health sectors, India has a vast healthcare system. Despite this, Medical Tourism in India is one of the fastest-growing sectors in the Indian economy making it a global medical tourism hub and one of the popular destinations for medical tourists, given the relatively low cost and high quality of healthcare services.
With emerging, healthcare facilities and treatment, disease perseverance is also increasing at a higher rate and the joint problem is one of all those diseases. The joint problem in people is emerging as the fourth most common cause of disability in India. Arthritis is one of them, the age-related degenerative arthritis involves degeneration of cartilage and can affect any joint of the body. In India the average age for the onset of knee problems in women is 50 years, in males, it is 60 years. Any previous injuries to the joint, arthritis or other chronic medical condition, bad lifestyle, overweight, age etc. are some of the factors that are responsible for joint-related problems that lead to joint pain. But if the person is experiencing the swelling, stiffness, numbness, clicking, grinding, or snapping sounds while moving the joint, painful movement, difficulty in bending or straightening the joint, loss of motion, and red swollen joint so consider these signs as the warning signs and visit a physician at the earliest.A study suggested that among the
15 crore Indians who are suffering
from knee problems, 4 crores go with a total knee replacement. Similarly, India
has reported millions of hip pain-related queries which are further diagnosed
as avascular necrosis, nearly 2 million avascular necrosis cases are
diagnosed every year in India. Which eventually will require total hip replacement surgery. This
shows a rapid increase in joint replacement surgeries in India.
