Chesapeake Regional Medical Center gets you up and moving - pain-free
Hundreds of thousands of Americans had joint replacement surgery last year. But surprisingly, not all were elderly seniors whose joints had simply worn out with age.
From young athletes with sports injuries to on-the-go Baby Boomers who want to once again dance the night away, an increasing numbers of middle-aged and even younger adults in pain have turned to orthopedic surgeons and hospital programs like the one at Chesapeake Regional for help in restoring and rejuvenating their joints.
