By addressing the underlying issues causing joint pain, arthroplasty can help individuals return to their normal routines and enjoy a more active lifestyle.

As time passes, the cartilage and bone may deteriorate further, leading to increased pain and disability. Patients may also experience muscle atrophy and joint deformities, making the surgery more complex and recovery more challenging.

Moreover, postponing treatment can result in a diminished quality of life, as individuals may find it increasingly difficult to engage in everyday activities.
