I am 4 and 10 weeks post THR. I notice that I can not stand very long before it really starts to hurt. Is this normal? If so, when does it get better?


Thanks
Sandy
 
I think it is normal. When I first started standing for any length of time I would get lower back pain. As I got stronger, the pain decreased. It has been 3 1/2 months since my operation. I am now walking everyday and continuing my exercises. I believe the pain I felt in the beginning was from my lopsided gait.
 
Early days - early days. You peeps do expect things to be back to normal quickly, don't you! Can be another couple of months yet. Be kind to yourself in the meantime. REST!!! as well as exercise.
