Thank you for these videos. My mother is getting left hip replacement surgery in a couple months. She is 88 years old. We're very worried because of her age and all the extra precautions we have to take during covid. I'm taking care of her at home, so I really appreciate having this to help with recovery.

Hey guys, I'm glad I came across this video. I'm about to go back to work hopefully in the security guard field. I've had triple hip replacement surgeries since March 5th of 2019. Left hip was replaced March 5, 2019. Right hip was replaced on my birthday, July 16, 2019. Then again one year to the day later. In June of 2020 I had two falls in two days. First fall was slipping in water during an indoor water main break. Fell from standing position with a full right side impact, then the next day due to being very sore I tripped in the grass falling from a standing position flat chested with a whipping action from mid chest and hips down. I literally heard a popping sound like your finger from your mouth. Right leg curled around my right leg as I screamed in agony. It was put back in place at the er only to have it pop out a week later picking up an apple from the floor. Pop goes the hip joint with the profound popping sound again. After replacing it again my surgeon gave me a brace to wear on my right leg keeping me from bending over. Putting the blasted thing on, another round of pop goes the hip joint. This time it tore the main muscle completely and my surgeon did the second right hip replacement plus had to graft my muscle back together on my birthday of 2020. I'll be using these videos to restrengthen my legs. I've been off work for a year now and about to return. Now you've both heard of a man who has had one dislocate three times. Thanks guys and keep up the Awesome work

@@Lolipop59 I have never fully recovered from these surgeries. I'm truly thankful because that is just a small example of my many injuries I've had. I am a Christian first but I know since God created the vast amount of stars and planets I believe that the moon definitely has an effect unique to each person according to his/her sign. I am a Cancer and am considered a moonchild. Only those born under the sign of Cancer can be a moonchild. It's pretty cool but sometimes not. We are also considered the most accident prone. What do you think? From first injury to last; agree 4-fell of front porch and split my head open and was unconscious, broke right arm in third grade, knee injury on barrel horse in 7th grade, also a 13ft fall into an empty creek bed of caliche landing square on my butt, was drop kicked down a seven step stair well in 9th grade, in 1981 fell through scaffolding 1 1/2 stories landing on concrete both knees first (it a like someone's hand pushed me at the right moment causing me to roll as I hit the ground & walked away, same job a six ft crosstie dropped from just a few inches land in the top of the third finger of my right hand and to this day it's flat, slipped in stripper water on a wax job at BSA, cut the end of my left thumb off at the kettle restaurant, caught myself on fire twice perfecting my fire breathing, had a heads on collision while stranded in the road, and my latest---slipped in water at work landing from a standing position in my right side, then from standing position fell flat chested. 2021 fell flat chested in my apartment with a heavy coffee cup about 1/4 of an inch shocking a sharp piece into my right hand. Three doctors and two chiropractors have said I should be in a wheelchair. I walked away from every one except the fall into the empty creek. The most miraculous was the head-on collision. No seat belt, both hands gripping the steering wheel with a white knuckle grip and upon implant I saw a wall of white. As it cleared from the outside of my vision into a small dot I was still gripping the wheel and a web shape shatter in the windshield right in line with my fists. I walked away from that only later to find I had broken both bottom ribs and torn the sinew from every rib. And I have necrosis in both wrists. God is not done with me yet

👋 to you all. I am almost at my six week check up for my 2nd dislocation surgery. I don't remember what I did to cause the first one, this newest one came after 2 falls within 4 days. I was exercising and lost my balance. Hip dislocation causes the most excruciating pain I have ever felt. (I have carried and delivered 4 children without painkillers. None of them felt like this.) my dislocations have happened 2 years from my previous surgery. I just want my life back. I don't understand why the surgeries don't last. Frustrating.

Every situation is different. There were different reasons why a replacement is needed. Not everyone is going to have the exact same instructions. What worked for you may not work for everyone.

My apologies if somebody has already mentioned it but you can put a walker up against or over the top of your toilet so it has handlebars and it works perfectly. No extra equipment needed.

So much better than was explained to me and never demonstrated. Geez thanks guys! Anterior hip replacement July 27 from a fall. At post op found another fracture so on no weight bearing until Aug 22 worse than a cast bc I have to remember . Just sit outside now am going to RR with Walker. None of my fractures were displaced I felt only positional pain. I got a Dexa two weeks after break and operation….. Osteoporosis taking Alendronate. Well once just started. Not cancer but still a nightmare. I felt so healthy. 81 few days.

@williampennjr.4448 2 ай бұрын

What if you accidenly broke a precaution but dont feel worse? I had posterior hip surgery and they mentioned these, but never told me what i should do if I broke one or how long i need to follow them. They actually said I could be walking in a week, but also told me not to put full weight on my affected leg. Im confused. At the time I didn't ask questions because I thought it would be explained in my discharge paper but they don't say anything except to take pain meds and make an appointment.

I am due for rt side THR in 2 weeks. Education folks say be very careful for 3 months. As you restrengthen the affected muscles you can return to normal activities moreor less. A lot depends on howcquicklybyou heal, and howcdiligentbyou are with exercises.

@N1TRO 2 ай бұрын

Yes this works but that level of uneven weight baring will fuck your body alignment up and make rehab later a much more difficult ond lengthy process. You should at a minimum be very concious of this and stretch to maintain rotation. Ideally you would have a banister on the other side too but since thats not the case most of the time having a cane or crutch on your strong side just to alleviate some of the excesive load you will be putting on the strong leg.

Not all hip replacement surgeries require precautions. My surgeon did a lateral procedure. The only precaution does not affect most people. The only thing I could not do was swing the surgical leg out to the side. I am 18 months post-op. I still don't move my leg in that direction.😊
