Joint Revision

Comprehensive Joint Revision Care

At Golden State Orthopedics & Spine, we are dedicated to providing exceptional care for patients who need revision surgery for a previous joint replacement. Over time, artificial joints may wear out, loosen, or develop complications that require additional surgery. Our team of joint revision doctors combines advanced surgical expertise with a patient-first approach, helping restore function, reduce pain, and improve quality of life. Whether you are experiencing discomfort years after your first replacement or facing issues with stability or wear, our doctors bring focused skill and experience to every stage of your treatment.

When Should I Seek Treatment From a Joint Revision Doctor?

Not all joint replacement problems require immediate surgery, but delaying care can increase the risk of long-term damage and further complications. Our joint revision specialists evaluate each patient individually and recommend the most effective, least invasive approach possible.

Individuals who may need joint revision surgery often notice symptoms such as:

  • Clicking, grinding, or unusual noises from the implant
  • Instability or looseness in the joint
  • Persistent pain in a replaced joint
  • Recurrent dislocations
  • Signs of infection, including warmth, redness, or drainage
  • Swelling, stiffness, or reduced range of motion

If you experience any of these symptoms, it may indicate one of the following conditions:

  • Bone loss around the implant
  • Fracture near the joint replacement
  • Implant failure or breakage
  • Loosening or wear of the implant
  • Periprosthetic joint infection
  • Recurrent dislocation or instability

At Golden State Orthopedics & Spine, our team works together to tailor treatment plans to each patient’s unique needs. Whenever possible, we recommend nonsurgical treatments to relieve symptoms or manage complications. If revision surgery is required, our surgeons use advanced techniques to address implant wear, infection, instability, or fracture.
