I'd like to ask you some questions if you don't mind, and it would be very helpful if you would answer each one individually - numbered as I have done - in as much detail as you can then I'll come back as see where you are ....
1. what approach did you have for your surgery? Anterior, posterior, lateral? You can look here to see the various types
THR approaches or incisions
2. what are your pain levels right now?
(remember the 1-10 scale: 1 = no pain and 10 = the worst you can imagine)
3. what pain medications have you been prescribed, how much are you taking (in mg please) and how often?
4. are you icing your hip at all?
5. are you elevating your leg, how often and for how long?
6. what is your activity level? What do you do in the way of housework, cooking, cleaning, shopping, etc., and
7. what kind of exercises and physio at home are you doing? How much and how often?
This is the most crucial question so please help me by using the format I have left as an example
(which means please make a list and not an essay!)
Exercises done at home: (how many sessions each day)
enter exercise then enter number of reps and sets
etc., etc.
At physio (how many times a week)
enter exercise then enter number of reps and sets
etc., etc.
