    The physiotherapist gave me a stretch exercise. I use a green band tired above my knees laying on the bed and do the abduction by spreading my legs apart. And lay on good side lifting the leg into the air. I can do both very well.

    I had my 6 week check up. I'm doing awesome. Walker gone. Cane gone. But i use the cane out shopping. Incision looks great. No pain. Just a little stretching of the muscles in leg. But not enough for meds.

    I was told that info from my doctor. . If you bend more than that getting up from chair or car etc. Your muscles are not strong enough to hold the new joint yet. And if you dislocate the hip you will be in major pain and have more issues repairing.
