Just thought I would share my hip stories. 2016 I had my first hip done with the posterior approach. First week was hell. Couldn’t believe I did it. A lot of pain. But gradually things came around and the hip is as strong as ever. A little numbness in the front thigh if I stand too long in the same spot. But back to working out and no pain at all from tbe hip.
I knew the other hip was bad and would have to be done too. I had really researched it and I found a good doctor that utilized the “table “ and the anterior approach. Had my surgery yesterday surgery at 8 home at 4:30. Pain but more muscle soreness. Much more mobile with the walker and no form of oxy at all. Advil and ice. Praying this one progresses as quickly and as sturdy as my other hip but also excited to be able to sleep normal without chronic pain. I’ll keep you posted on my progress.
