Bilateral hip replacement is a surgical procedure that replaces damaged hip joints (amazingly, this procedure began in the 1930s). Generally, the damage to the hip joint is due to severe osteoarthritis or possibly necrosis (defined as death of tissue) of the hip joint. The replacement of a hip joint will relieve pain and restore mobility for an individual, however the replacement usually is delayed as long as possible especially in younger individuals partially due to the fact that the average hip replacement will wear out in approximately ten years. Hip replacement is noted fairly regularly on disability applications. Can you win social security disability or SSI disability benefits on the basis of a bilateral hip replacement?
