@Spex10. not sure if you had anterior surgery, but I have been sleeping on my side with my surgery leg flat and straight but my other leg over a pillow between my legs. I’m not sure if this is rotation but there is no pain or a strange feeling. Also my surgeon said I had no precautions and can do anything I can tolerate. I specifically asked him if I could sleep on my surgery side and he said that was fine. I also specifically asked about external rotation and extension of the surgery leg behind me and was told that was completely fine. I was cleared to do yoga as well which has some rotation and extension. I had anterior surgery And 6-7 weeks post-op. I understood the rotation to be careful of is when you are standing with weight on you surgery side foot and turning to a different direction. I don’t know how we can go about life without some sort of rotation in our hip. it’s impossible.Just a quick query. I've been so happy to be sleeping on my front these past few nights but I've just read that I absolutely should not be doing that as I'd be bound to twist my hip. My hips always feel absolutely flat to the mattress. I don't know what to think. What should I do?
Ooohhhh, tell me more about your Stressless chair. I looked at them today. Of course the one I want is $4500.I've had a problem the past few days. Every time I stand up from my usual seats (Stressless recliners) I have acute pain in my hip. It's really painful. I noticed that standing up from sitting on quite a high bed I'm fine. I must be pulling or pinching something when standing from a lower chair.
Solution - I've dug out my special high firm cushion that I had for just after the op and all is well. Most odd.
Well done on your Op - good luck with the early stages of your rehabAm back in the room. Op all done and apparently went well. Legs still numb but feeling returning a bit. How to I transfer to the post op side of Bonesmart?
