I am in week one of my second hip replacement. This video was very enlightening, e.g., the (reason) why it is more effective to use a single-point cane v.s. four-point cane and handling the cane on the non-surgically repaired side of the body (I forgot). Answered the questions perfectly, so I was better prepared for my first visit with the physical therapist.

Thank you guys for the very thoroughly "showing which hand should be holding the cane". The therapist at my pre-surgery PT class said the cane and walker move with the operated leg and I misunderstood that as meaning I had to have the cane on the same side as my operated hip. Thank you for showing the chef usage. Now I know that the cane is to be on the opposite hand of my operated hip. "Right" hip replacement means cane is held with my "Left" hand.

The cane irritates my outer arm, shoulder and neck. I'm not leaning on it. It's from lifting it to move with the opposing leg

Same problem. Bought 1/2 kg hand weights and did 3 exercises. Hold weight at shoulder, straight up in air. Second one straight out in front. Third one curl down to waist (weight facing you). Do all exercises 10 times 3 times a day. Found it very very helpful.

At some point in this walking, pressure has to happen on the sore side. That can't happen yet. Cane is not helpful. 3 inch stride, balance with sore leg toe touch....with hop on good leg allows motion. Cane is badly in the way. The demonstrator has two good legs, so not useful at all.

She’s further away from the camera. I can hear her fine though.
