Jones addressed the leak via TMZ, stressing his willingness to fight if the payoff is worth the pain and that his comeback would depend on finding something truly special, while the UFC works to finalize the White House card lineup in the coming weeks.

Key Insights on Hip Replacement Surgery

Hip replacement surgery is often considered for severe joint damage due to conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or osteonecrosis. Not everyone with joint damage requires surgery, as non-surgical treatments like NSAIDs, cortisone injections, and physical therapy can be effective. The decision to undergo surgery depends on individual pain levels and lifestyle impacts. Most patients can go home the same day as the surgery, which typically lasts 1.5 to 2 hours, and involves different surgical approaches based on medical needs and surgeon preference.

"Improved Hip Replacement Outcomes with Weight-Loss Drugs"

Preliminary data presented at a meeting of orthopedic surgeons suggests that the diabetes and weight-loss drugs Ozempic and Wegovy may benefit patients undergoing hip replacement, with lower odds of developing joint infections and needing readmission to the hospital, without increasing complication risks. Two studies reviewed data on patients with diabetes and obesity who underwent total hip arthroplasty and found that the use of these drugs did not increase the risks for postoperative problems. However, more evidence from high-quality trials is needed before definitively recommending starting these drugs prior to hip replacement.
