Good news is coming for Spain with Spain's 74-year-old King Juan Carlos finally being discharged from the hospital on Sunday after his successful hip replacement operation and several days of physiotherapy for his recovery.

Medical professionals have confirmed in their recent statements over the discharge of the Spain's king that he has been implanted with a successful state-of-the-art prosthetic left hip and his health is at a recovering side.

The operation was performed on November 23, which is being counted as the monarch's sixth operation in two years.

While being discharged after 10 days from the hospital, the king was seen smiling but a bit tired. He told the reporters that he was glad to spend few extra days at the Madrid hospital for the physiotherapy sessions that were performed for his fast recovery from the operation. Doctors expect him to fully recover in approx a month.

The Spanish monarch has already undergone two operations in April on his other hip, along with one that was carried out on his lung tumour in 2010 and a torn Achilles tendon last year, when he also received an artificial right knee.

Mr. Villamor, who supervised the surgery, said that the therapy sessions have worked wonderfully over the king, who even mid-week was trying to walk "on his own" with the help of crutches.
