Any activity you do will reduce the life of your arthroplasty.

Usually only sickle cell patients, maybe kidney failure patiients and chronic corticosteroid users need hip replacements that young.

Or congenital hip dysplasia patients of course.

Fortunately, I think I can rule out each of those ailments.

The doctor said this occurs in about 1 in 1000 people so I guess I'm just lucky.
