@@scholasticaokolo healing was painful for me the first few weeks. I'm now in my 3rd week. I still have pain, but not as much. Hopefully your surgery will be a success 🙌🏿
I had my right hip replaced in of Jan 2019. It went very well as I was in fairly good shape beforehand, for guy in his late 60s. I was up walking about 2 hrs after surgery.Just amazing. The physio was tough but hang in there ,it will get better. I think the main thing after any joint replacement is exercise. The surgeon did his job now it's time to do yours. This is now 8 months after surgery & I feel great apart from some numbness but I'm told that will go over time.
Thank you for these videos. They did my total hip replacement and sent me home 15 hours later. When you're trying to deal with painkillers you dont always remember what and how to do these exercises.
I had full hip replacement 5 days ago and I am struggling so much... this video answered all my questions about constipation, medication, exercises. This is the best! I can't thank you enough for making the video and posting it.
Thank you so much. I am 4 weeks post THR. I was getting very discouraged watching videos of people walking without walker or cane day after surgery to 2 weeks postoperative. I am getting better and stronger at my own rate. Using cane most of the time. Thank you!!!
I am 27 days post-op and walking hurts, thighs are tight. I'm going to start walking holding walker lightly tomorrow if it's sunny . You'll get there don't worry.
Thanks for this video, so very helpful in many ways. I am 2 weeks post op hip replacement in the UK. Our NHS is excellent but this video gives a little extra and has really helped me.
These were very informative video! The head dialogue was very informative, detailed and helpful. The PT portion of the video was also very good! Thanks
Hey BIG ED here still on my wife's tablet I'm a 61 year old man getting Ready to have my left hip Replacement in October This video has helped me alot Ty so much for your information and time
I am 69 years old and two day post-op for my right total hip replacement. Right now I can do all the exercises you've shown but the Short Arc Quad exercise. My leg is now too week and painful when I try that one. I have bookmarked this video so I go back to it easily and do them until I have them commented to memory. Thank you much.
The major key, in my professional and practical opinion from experience, for fast recovery, is keeping the thigh and leg muscles from atrophying, (shrinking) Immediately after awakening from surgery flex your foot up and down repetitively non stop for at least the first six hours of awakening. I was out of hospital in 23 hours. 14 years ago at age 49 with a Posterior incision. Average recovery time was to expect 3 to 6 weeks.
I had total hip replacement 4mts. Ago at the Port of Spain hospital and I am walking no walker no cane I do have some nerve pain and numbness that is normal said my Doctor the team of Doctor's in the otopedic clinic at the P.O.S. General Hospital are very good Thank,s very much Miss MC.gillvary
This looks like a good guide. But why are the exercises not done on the hip that was not replaced as well in order to keep it from getting weak while recovering from hip replacement surgery?
Hello just wanted to find out how your doing 3 months later. I had my right hip replaced 3 days ago and I'm having a lot of pain and swelling but I don't see and leakage.
2nd hip ..same as the first...got my last one just before super bowl 2022..doing great...constipation is a real thing..apple juice and supplements a very good idea.
I'm recovering from Total Hip Replacement, and doing well after more than 3 weeks. I have been doing most of these exercises at home - usually a few sets each, and about 3 times daily. The fact that I am constantly moving seems be very beneficial. If I sit too long (watching TV or at the computer), I tend to stiffen up a bit. Helps to get up and move around. One more thing: the ankle pumps are a great exercise. They are very easy to do and you can do them anytime while lying down or sitting. But 3000 times a day!!!? Is this guy nuts? Even if I did 30 reps at a time, I would have to do that 100 times daily!!! TOO UNREALISTIC! When would a person have any time left to do all the OTHER exercises? Not mention all the other tasks of bathing, dressing, food prep, eating, house keeping, pet supervision and resting in between. I live alone with 3 dogs, so my day is quite full. I try to do about 100 ankle pumps a day. That seems to work fine for me.
first, NO it will NOT be like this forever, just the first month, eat + sleep + exercise, don't worry about anything else for the first month. It is a long process to recover from this extensive trauma. I am past my 6 month and pretty close to back to normal. I am looking for people who have had the hip replacement, ESPECIALLY if you had the additional problem of “hip pop out” and had to have it reset. If you would like to help other people deal - contact me PM or here, I am trying to build a comprehensive video and lack this data: the event of “pop-out” and specifically any indicators or feelings prior and during that incident. What were you doing to cause it and any other minor points that you could think of.
@@claudiavlz3534 you have options, 1. get second opinion, 2. get info on your options, as to surgery/ replace/ repair, 3. be prepared by setting your house up with the clear paths, handholds in shower and such, pick up a walker at a thrift store cause the hospital will charge $100, 4. if a replacement is only option then be as prepared ahead of time. Have the mindset to exercise very regularly several times a day. For me, it was no warning, Boom! The next day I have a metal hip. Plan on 3 months of serious eat properly, exercise a lot, keep an aggressive attitude for Winning. After 6 months you should be mostly moble, but be cautious with actions. After 12 months you should be mostly back to normal activities. The device is inserted into the bone, so twisting is bad, that is also what they mean by "pop out" if the metal comes loose from the bone. This is the first 3 months, that with good diet and exercise and no 'bad moves' / this allows the bone to properly grow and attach. Other things to do is grill the doctor for explanations, remember, they only put them in, they don't have one. And research online / bob & brad for example,
My husband just got his two days ago! … he is already back home , having trouble sleeping he is pain but im worried about him taking so many prescriptions…
Interesting. I'm having hip replacement in Oct. ... I won't be having any therapy because when it comes to hips. The dr. said that the therapist over due and have the patients do way to many exercises and they are to often sore and swollen up from it. LOL Due 3000 of these a day.
Thanks for exercises for early rehab after total hip replacement. I am about 9 weeks after surgery. When do you think I can renew rebounding, at least for the Health Bounce? I've used the rebounder before but I am 85 now, and cautious but eager to use it as part of my rehab. Would love your advice. Thanks.😍 ps: I've recently learned I have osteoporosis in my hips and lower spine, so another question is: what do you think about rebounding for increasing bone density? I'm not going to go the medical treatment route. Please advise on this too. I do sooo appreciate your help.
Hi ever so.sorry you all going through so much. I am in need of surgery, I am barely making it from point A to B without a fall. I not yet 60. Anyone ever do anything before surgery.
Deb F I am 80 and this is my second hip replacement. Never had any problems. I do listen to healing music on my iPhone on UTube. I can’t believe it works took most of the pain away. We woman , can do any thing lol, hang in there it will get better.
+Chris Cooley Hi Chris, I see your comment was a couple of weeks ago, but did want to reach out to you to see if you've gotten an answer to your question yet. If not, I'll be finding someone to put you in touch with to problem-solve this. Sorry for our delay in responding!
+Chris Cooley Our physical therapist offered up the following advice for you. Good luck! If you are in a public bathroom with stalls, use the larger handicapped bathroom, which always has a raised toilet. If you visit friends' homes or have a lower toilet, the key is to slide the foot of the surgical side forward as you sit down, so you don't bend too much or break precautions. The same is true with standing up; you should keep that foot out in front while standing.
I have to get a hip replacement my Dr.said I would not be given pain medication afterwards I thought after any surgery you had to take pain meds does this sound normal?
I am 3 weeks post surgery. I had morphine about 4 times first 24 hrs with oxy. then Oxycodone for about a week. I would not think a dr wouldn’t prescribe pain meds after replacement surgery.
larry samples I would think so maybe I misunderstood him it will be both of my hips that have to be replaced still in the early stages of setting a date on the surgery.I hope he does because nothing over the counter works like it is for pain at this time I could only imagine what the pain would be like afterwards.Thank you for the reply and hope you have a speedy recovery.
I had a hip replacement and was sent to nurseing home got infected and a neve was cut into and I was give infections and stuff and have to be on abboctitc the rest of my life and the Dr lied to me about doing what he did and I can't even walk so I had a very hard time and was cut open 5 times and in bad shape all I've a hip replacement , I hope nobody has to go though what I did cause my Dr didn't even tell me to walk with a cane and the first month went good then started popping out and I don't think Drs should get away with doing you wrong then he does another sugery on me and really messed me up , so I was done very wrong
I went though more then you would know and now I can't get around good and the Dr that did mine lied to me and I went though more then anything or anybody can even think of so now I can get around and it's hard to do anything the Dr lied didn't tell me to us a cane to walk with and if u could see my hip u would think I don't want that Dr but he got away of doing me the way he did and I don't have a life a more have to take infected pills the rest of my life and I'm in worse shape now then before the surgery so don't let David grifffen to any sugery on you he's no good and lies about everything he cut me open 5 times and like I said he's no good
I'm 3 days post op. taking oxycontin and trying to learn from this video. It seems like she's smiling at the beginning of her sentences but by the end of her sentence she's looking evil lol kinda scary
I am not a medical professional but I strongly urge you to stop taking oxycontin. That stuff is addictive and is nothing but trouble. Switch to extra strength tylenol as no prescription is required. It is all you really need.
I cannot tell whether the person who had the hip replacement in the video is a man or a woman. This distracted me from the content of the video. Was it a man or a woman?
I am surprised that a woman cannot tell whether the video is of a man or women. The person in this video has hardly any muscles in the person's legs and arms, which indicates that the person is a woman.
