Did you know that osteoarthritis is one of the most common reasons that people have severe hip and knee pain. I watched my own mother struggles with these aches and pains. With the way things are, the demand for hip and knee replacements have been on the rise, and my own mother was faced with that decision. Yet, as my mom did she saw it as a last option, not wanting to go under knife for surgery and wonder what it would be like after.
DePuy Synthes is trying to change the minds of millions of people who are stuck with pain that is affecting their everyday lives. When you have been active all of your life and then all of a sudden just walking becomes a obstacle you look for options to help. It is also emotionally draining on you because you feel dependent on family members to help you out.
The Hit Play initiative doesn’t want you to spend you life on the sidelines-“Hit Play” on your life and rejoin your family and friends in the things that you love.
Hit Play is a series of videos along with emotional pieces that showcase the impact of less mobility on a person’s life as well as their family. The messages in the video help to encourage those affected by hip and knee pain to take action and speak with their doctor.
It is serving as a go to site for those suffering from hip and knee pain and makes finding a doctor to speak with in their area accessible.
If you have someone in your life that is suffering with hip or knee pain have them check out this video.
At the end of the video their is a “Physician Locator”, please check it out for a doctor in your area. Also check out the website for more information www.TimeToHitPlay.com.
Don’t let hip or knee pain stop you from enjoying life, get the information you need and go back to living again.
