Hi Again,
I'm now 13 days post op for a RTHR non-cemented 36 mm metal on poly. Two questions I'd like to ask.
1. My surgeon tells me that with this large head the risk of dislocation is almost zero. Anyone have thoughts on this please?
2. I'm pain free in the hip, but have had knee problems since the op - feels like maybe bursitis, pain comes when I move the knee by muscular effort, I think using the rectus femoris (??)
Also, if anyone would like to know some of the pro's and con's of having this procedure done in India, I'd be happy to give what information I can. Maybe that should be in another thread?
Thanks everyone for all this great support. this site is a god-send.
