Gain Your Independence From Hip Pain

Your hips are fundamental to movement, balance, and carrying out daily activities. When hip pain strikes, it can significantly impact your quality of life, making simple tasks like walking, sitting, or even sleeping a challenge. Mr. Raman Sethi’s goal is to help you regain your mobility and independence from hip pain through expert diagnosis and advanced treatment. Mr. Raman Sethi is a fellowship-trained Orthopaedic Surgeon specialising in hip conditions. He offers comprehensive, personalised care designed to alleviate your pain and restore function, helping you get back to the activities you love.

Common Hip Conditions Treated

Mr. Sethi provides expert evaluation and treatment for a variety of conditions affecting the hip joint, including:

Osteoarthritis of the Hip

Often referred to as "wear and tear" arthritis, this common condition involves the breakdown of cartilage in the hip joint, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced movement.

Rheumatoid Arthritis

An autoimmune disease that can cause inflammation and damage to the hip joint lining.

Post-Traumatic Arthritis

Arthritis that develops after an injury to the hip.

Hip Fractures

Breaks in the upper part of the thigh bone (femur) near the hip joint, often requiring urgent surgical intervention.

Avascular Necrosis (AVN) of the Hip

A condition where bone tissue dies due to a lack of blood supply, potentially leading to collapse of the hip joint.

Femoroacetabular Impingement (FAI)

A condition where extra bone grows along one or both of the bones that form the hip joint – giving the bones an irregular shape. This can cause the bones to rub against each other, leading to damage to the joint.

Trochanteric Bursitis

Inflammation of the bursa (a fluid-filled sac) on the outside of the hip, causing pain.

Advanced Hip Treatments

Mr. Sethi is experienced in offering both conventional and cutting-edge surgical techniques to address your hip condition, always aiming for the best possible outcomes. Treatment options are tailored to your specific diagnosis, lifestyle, and goals.

Surgical Interventions

Conventional Total Hip Replacement

A proven surgical procedure where damaged bone and cartilage are removed and replaced with prosthetic components. This remains a highly effective solution for severe hip arthritis.

Utilising advanced Mako Robotic technology, this technique allows for a highly precise and personalised approach to hip replacement. The robotic arm assists the surgeon in preparing the bone and placing the implants with extreme accuracy, potentially leading to improved outcomes
and faster recovery.

For patients who have had a hip replacement in the past, this procedure addresses issues such as implant wear, loosening, infection, or recurrent instability, replacing some or all of the original prosthetic components.

Non-Surgical Management

While surgery is often necessary for advanced hip conditions, Mr. Sethi also advises on and coordinates non-surgical treatments where appropriate. These may include:
