Replacing a joint can reduce pain and help you move and feel better. The other major risk is that the new joint may not work as well as you hoped. It might feel weak or stiff, particularly the knee. Patients who don't rehabilitate promptly will not regain the maximum range of motion. It's less common, but it'sit's possible that the implant can become loose or get dislocated. Also, keep in mind that the replacement joint can wear out after about 20 years. That means the patient may need another surgery down the road, revision of total joint replacement.
