" My name is Jideofor Okonkwo resident of Nigeria; I had always believed that age is just a number. I'm currently in my sixties, but I feel like a 21-year-old, being a father of two young children, an active guy who worked full-time as a retail manager and is very active outside of his job. Some of his favorite hobbies include camping, biking, working out, cruising and spending time with family and friends. I have been active my whole life, Being active is part of his very being. I wanted to live life to the fullest, so that includes remaining healthy and active.
Last year there was a grand naming ceremony of my grandchild has held; the ceremony is one of the most celebrated activity in Nigeria. That is in which family, friends and well-wishers acquire to celebrate the latest member of the family. The party reaches a climax when the new child receives his or her name. In Nigeria, this occasion is usually a big deal as deciding on Nigerian boy names or girl names is very crucial. We had a huge celebration and I was happy and proud of my family.
Next day I noticed a nagging pain in my groin whenever I was out jogging. For few days I preferred taking rest as I thought it might be due to the celebration we had, but as the pain continued. My visits with three different doctors resulted in a diagnosis of arthritis in both hips. I wisely concluded that my condition had progressed beyond "normal" and it was time for professional help. As it is very difficult to get latest technology and infrastructure at Nigerian hospitals, I started looking for option outside the country.
In my search for solutions, I came in contact with joint replacement surgery service India; they fully outlined the services provided, and costs related there to, testimonials from other clients, benefits and risks.
