Hi
@Tinesme and
to the forum.
Can you please let us know the actual date of your THR and which hip was replaced so we can add you to a recovery group and you can follow some of your recovery cohorts.
These are early days and though there is much hype about anterior being a bit easier, really the recoveries track much the same especially long-term.
At 3 weeks the recovery regemin is definitely getting old.
I also had issues with my heels burning and my kiwi stepsister provided relief in the form of a "sheepy" swath she had given my stepmother.
I placed it under my heels to cut down the friction caused by restless legs and the angle with the pillow.
Patience is definitely prescribed in large doses.
Hopefully you are still icing regularly
as this really helps with ongoing pain and inflammation.
It does get better.
Below, I will leave you the recovery guidelines. Check out the activity progression and it may help to see if you are doing too much too soon.
You will love your new hip once you get over the tough bits.
