Hi everyone, I am a newbie hipster - had my first surgery on 9/23, unfortunately the prosthesis replacement cup shifted and had to have a revision on 10/9. I know, what a mess. I am now POD 18, from my second surgery. Post op check was 3 days ago - X-rays look good ( there is a spacer now to hold it in place ) . Well, my dilemma is when I stand I feel my operated side feels way shorter. I am scared when I do start to walk I will limp because of the discrepancy I feel in the length of my legs. Does anyone else had this issue? Also my buttock on the right is now flat, they had to use a different approach and partially resect the gluteus medius muscle when they did the revision. How do I prevent my buttock from getting so atrophic? Any thoughts? Scared ex -figrskter
