I did wake up this morning with alot of pain. But pain gradually went to normal pain
This seems normal. You‘re going to have pain and stiffness this early on especially after being idle (sleeping) and also if you’re overdoing it.
I really hope I heal and there isn't any other issue.
went to surgeon today he told me to be patient. He said groin pain is normal.
Please trust your surgeon. He’s the expert and the one that sees patients and performs surgery day in and out. He reassured you that your pain is normal. Hold that thought, especially when you start going to the bad place in your mind.
Your body suffered an assault through the “controlled” trauma of joint replacement and is healing from that. Give yourself the TLC you deserve through taking your meds on schedule, icing / elevating, staying hydrated, eating a healthy diet, getting adequate sleep and rest and remaining calm. I would suggest you back away from PT, which you most likely don’t need and see if you notice a difference. You can always return at a later date. Not sure if you read the BIG TIP from the Recovery Guidelines -
BIG TIP: Hips actually don't need any exercise to get better. They do a pretty good job of it all on their own if given half a chance. Trouble is, people
don't give them a chance and end up with all sorts of aches and pains and sore spots. All they need is the best therapy which is walking and even then
not to excess.
Try to keep your mind occupied and take it a day at a time. The discomfort and pain you‘re experiencing will ease with time. You’re extremely early into the healing process and even a week or two at this point can make a difference in how you’re feeling.
Hopefully you can make some plans for the weekend. Nothing big, just a comfortable visit with family or friends, maybe a bbq on the 4th? Anything you can easily engage in for a short period of time may help with the mental / emotional side of the healing process. Get out and breathe in the fresh air and smell the roses.
Wishing you lots of comfort and peace of mind. Healing is happening and will continue to happen. Give it time…
