Why are hip and knee replacements on the rise?

 One reason for the increase in hip and knee replacements may be that people are living longer and are more active than ever before. As people age, their joints naturally wear down, which can lead to pain and limited mobility.

Another reason for the increase in these surgeries may be that advances in medical technology have made them safer and more reliable. With newer implants and surgical techniques, there is a lower risk of complications or infection after surgery. And with increasing awareness of joint replacement as an option, more people are choosing to undergo the procedure.
