Evening all,
Someone sign posted me here and I’m very grateful for any advice - I am 33 and 4 weeks post THR (lateral) and my limp awful. I have googled the life out of it and stumbled upon a name given to this type of limp after surgery like this. My torso leads over the effected side and I’m limping like hell which is getting my down. My job is a physical trainer so am someone who is active ALL the time and I’m struggling mentally! I’ve managed to get onto an assault bike with no pain and a ski erg utilising arms only but you can’t get very far with that technique. My question is will it ever disappear? I am undergoing intense physio…everyday I am stretching and conducting strengthening exercises, I’ve even managed to do some exercises in the pool. Maybe people are walking fine after 4 weeks and I don’t feel like I am progressing also my lower back pain is off the chart…like 8 out of 10 on a pain scale.
Any advice would be greatly appreciate
