Thanks so much Doctor, your patient and step-by-step explanations are quite interesting. You just made my day. I had knee replacement surgery on my about a month now and still battling with the consequent pains, swelling of the leg, hotness of the knee, bending the leg, etc.

Just before first lockdown for Covid. I had a Nasty fall, falling right on the hip. It was ok for about two months. Then the Pain started to get worse In the Joint (Arthritis formed). To a point were In could not stand up at all. Over the last Six Years. I have pushed through this. and i am up and walking again. But I have decided to have a Hip Replacement done dew to still having sever pain In the Joint. I sleep sitting up. All i want Is the pain to go away. And get my life back. As I am the only one left (Cancer taking everyone else) The Phone stopped ringing and nobody comes around for a long time now. I struggle to walk, but I have to, as living alone. I am going In over Christmas 2024. I am going to ask them to do the one from the front, like you do. And Hopefully I will be and partying for the New Year. I Am In the UK. Thanks for this Video. It has made me more determined to do It now.

So i see all positive comment are there any negative ones ?

I just had Anterior left hip! Couldn’t be happier! Excellent video thank you!!!

that feeling when knee surgery is tomorrow.

Antibacterial ointment

After a failed hip replacement operation due to low blood pressure and was told my prefered anterior method was not advised because it takes much longer to perform than the posterior method. Im desparatelywaiting for a new date.

I had an operation on my right hip, an endoprosthesis was done, can anyone explain to me why my knee twisted right after the operation and now after a month I feel pain in my knee and I have trouble walking

that feeling when knee surgery is tommorow

7:34 does having the prosthesis jammed down inside the femur cause much pain? Compression of the marrow seems like it would be extremely painful.

that feeling when knee surgery is tomorrow

7 days ago I had a total right hybrid hip replacement. A bit sore still and swollen but can't believe how I'm already getting about in the house and up and down stairs no problem. Off work for 16 weeks, new quality of life, can't wait to get out and about again .

Arthritis hurts plenty

Can you plz tell the cost of the. HRS. I'm 22 years old.

Very clear explanation and analysis, I already feel better for being informed!

I am to have a knee replacement in the next few days. Thank you for such an informative video.

Excellent consult. Thank you

I have a problem which I think needs a hip replacement after listening to this video. I have pain in right hip and now affecting the left. My other right leg is shorter than the right leg. This happened after I was stabbed in the lower under the knee on my right leg, after the surgery i did not heal well as the leg became bend and i developed problem after problem. i now have a spine problem. I have been going to the hospital since 2016 but i have recieved little help. I need help my right leg pains affecting the lumbar and my buttocks too. How can you help me.

I am 70 years old. I weigh 21 2. What should I weigh? I am 5 '9 5'9. What do you think I should weigh? Please tell me if you can

I'm 70 years old. I'll be 71 in 3 months. What do you think. I have arthritis in both knees bone on bone bone spur behind one knee. Please respond. Thanks a lot man. Be safe out there

Why the background music is necessary is so annoying. Made me stop watching half way through

I’m scheduled for a right hip replacement via anterior approach on 11/7/24. I’ve done my research, watched many videos and listened to podcasts. This is the best one I’ve seen. It validates what I’m experiencing and confirms what I have been told about the procedure and recovery. I am greatly looking forward to being free of pain and getting my life back. Thank you for this!

Dear Doctor I listen to your video and find it very interesting, i have done an arthroscopy on my knee 4 months now for meniscal tear. My concern is i heard you said you can probably go back to work after a week, after four months i can hardly walk i zm afraid to bend my knees as the bones are rubbing. I was told that i have osteoarthritis do you think that is what is causing the pain?

I am 10 days post anterior left total hip replacement

I was in a vehicle accident 6/18/23. Due to bone infection I have no ankle joint,a very thin talus and some of my tibia missing, I am still in external fixation, can you help me please?

Great info Dr! Broke my ankle in Hawaii..no idea how I got home..orthopedic dr taking care of me now..slow but steady healing. Thank you!

I had a total knee replacement 5 yesterday ago. Developed a severe rash within days.metal allergy report showed 18% to nickel. 6% consider severe. Plus cobalt and chromium less severe.knee gas been red, hot and swollen for years. Several surgeons p.o recommend replacement .what is best prosthetic to use? What degree of efficiency can i expect? Loosing range of motion and increased pain. Am 80 yrs. Thank you

My discovery for safe 30hours total pain relief (TBI); chew together 375mg aspirin and 500mg to 1000mg phenylalanine between meals (with no other protein within 2 hours)

I wish you can discuss more about revisions and about duel implants

I wish you can discuss more about revisions and about duel implants

Thank you. This was extremely helpful.

Excellent information thank you 😊

Mine is completely ruptured

Great video.

Maybe a long video presentation, but so thorough and so well explained. However, I was surprised you did not talk at all, for a quicker recovery, about the cryotherapy to improve that after surgery phase. Is it something you do not recommend? And if not, can you explain? Thanks a lot for your time and caring professionalism.

I had total replacement and it damaged me for life. I can barely walk and I have to use a walker only 64 at time. The doctor told me to learn to live with horable pain😢

Thank you sir for the excellent video on hip surgery. It is very informative and detailed with the specifics to make an informed decision. I am 58, avid runner, golfer and active person. I will have my surgery next month in the U.S. and look forward to getting back to my pain-free activities soon after. However, my running may be reduced, but I will take up other activities to stay fit and healthy. Thanks again for all the information, sir! Patrick

Yeah but mines dislocated 16 times why

Getting ready to begin the journey of 2 full knee replacements.I thought your video was very informative and detailed but easy to understand. Thank you.👍

Asiatic nerb is out of position come on.

I did ortroscopy but i have artritis doctors lie for$$$$$$

Amazing video.

Thank you for your excellent video 👏🌟👏🌟

I bought garbage bags that were somewhat leakprove. My son bought me a 7 lb bag of ice everyday until the pain and swelling eased. I put the whole bag on my hip. The pain medicine wasn't enough .

I’m in the US and and two weeks post op for my hip replacement (posterior approach). I will see my surgeon tomorrow for a follow-up. Some of the questions I was going to ask him got answered here. I wondered how long it takes the bone to grow onto the prosthetic parts. I also found it interesting how snugly the stem fits down into the femur. I needed to go to a rehab center for a couple of weeks because I live alone in a second floor apartment with 14 steps. All the physical therapists who’ve worked with me are pleased with my progress, so I hope to be going home soon. My apartment is less than 700 sq ft, so it’s going to be easy to get from one room to another. I don’t foresee any difficulty doing activities of daily living, so I’m anxious to get back to my familiar environment. Great video!

Thank you, Dr. Hutchinson! It has taken me numerous years to decide on the surgery. I have interviewed four surgeons prior to my surgery. I asked many of the questions that you suggested, and most of them wouldn't take the time to answer any of them. When I ask one of them what kind/brand of knee they used, instead of answering he said," Let me ask you this, if a pipe broke in your house, would you ask the plumber what kind of pipe he would put in?" He also said he doesn't use robotic assistance, he "eye-balls it." I also asked him, "What is your pain protocol?" He said, " Well you have to expect pain!" I said, " I know. I am asking what is the pain protocol?" Again, he repeated, " well you have to expect pain!" I asked that question and third time and got the same answer. I walked out of his office saying, "There is no way in hell I am letting that surgeon touch my body." I finally found a wonderful surgeon who has answer all of my questions and concerns, and I am scheduled for surgery next week. Now I am praying for a wonderful PT doctor. Thank you for sharing important and invaluable information. It is very helpful. I wish more surgeons were as thorough, professional, caring, and competent! You are a treasure Dr. Hutchinson.

I posted after my surgery. My surgeon insisted I use a walker for 2 weeks after but I used my 4-wheel walker until my last theraoy appointment because the therapists scolded me fir saying I used a cane to go into stores when I shopped and then used an electric cart in the store or the shopping cart in the store. After the last therapy when I wS able to s do all the requested exercises with my operated keg and was told I was finished with the therapy I began using my cane more at home and at 4 months after my surgery have not used my walker unless I need to walk a ggreat distance to my destination. Since my operated leg was an inch and half shorter at the surgery I still at times feet the effect in my right hip. The surgeon's nurse said it woukd take berween 3 and 6 months before my body would not notice the difference of the leg length correction. I still feel the difference if I walk too much without my cane at home but have begun using a cane instead of the walker most if the time and at times will walk st home without the cane. Glad I an able to do that. Not in a hurry to quit using the cane, but it will be slowly be left behind as I need to not use it. I feel good that I got my hip teplaced even if I have been so slow to change from my walker to a cane. Each of uswill progress at our own pace.

Thank you for the video. Really interesting. 10 weeks into a knee meniscus tear and it's still so painful. Now it's getting stuck too. Physio so far have not done any scans on it. Should I insist or otherwise go private? I'm in the UK. Thanks.

Hi, thanks for all inftmation. You did not cover dislocated ankle. This happened to me. It is fixed to plaster with no surgery. I would like to know if ligaments will be cured without surgery. I understand ghat dislocation without brokrn bone is not comon. Thanks.
