Try some exercises & stretches for weak areas before giving up. Surgery doesn't always help. It won't make your muscles stronger. It's not like once you get out of shape for whatever reason you stay that way forever. Fat people can exercise. Nothing is stopping you except a defeatist attitude.

Muscle weakness including the hips can also be due to other things. Some common symptoms of Pompe Disease are difficulty rising from a chair and going up stairs.

[@jb6712]

I know my right hip is weak, having injured it in a very painful manner seven years ago. I can't climb stairs without a lot of help (using the railing and my quad cane together). I do know I have to at least attempt to strengthen my hips---I'm only 68---because I don't want to go from a cane to a walker, or worse, become dependent on others to help me all the time. And I flat out refuse to get a 'stand-lift' recliner when I get my new furniture for my new apartment; I don't want to be dependent on something mechanical to get myself up when I can strengthen my muscles!

[@mundomagico7787]

😂 The skeleton! 🤣 Thanks B&B. Bought your muscle massage gun this week from your UK store on Amazon. Thanks for making them available over here and saving me hours of trawling reviews trying to find the right one. My hubby is a c3/4 incomplete tetraplegic with spasticity and high muscle tone and this has really helped relax off some muscles in his hands/arms/pecs/shoulders. Wish we had had it years ago. Hoping it will help with my sciatica too. I have got weak hips from long covid (inactivity) and stomach ulcers (leaning forward and to one side for months). I can’t bend down without keeping my one leg straight for support. I’m 43! Slim. Maybe it’s menopause. But my hips kick out occasionally recently like you have shown. I Defo need to do some work on that. Thank you so much from me and my husband!

[@kazzie2935]

I am 51 & also have severe arthritis in my right hip, waiting for a hip replacement here in the uk & I can't wait to be honest, simply because the pain really does get worse as time goes on even on super strength painkillers, it's been 18 months over for me, new hip means no pain after its healed & I look forward to that time. Good luck either way if you choose to have the replacement or not 😁

[@johnmellyn2700]

I was in the same boat as you, severe arthritis in L hip, put it off for two years , had it done last June at New England Baptist in Boston ( in between the elective surgery covid shut downs ).. I’m not over weight by any means but I couldn’t put my left sock on ( not even close )…getting the hip done was the best thing I’ve ever done , I wish I had done it sooner , don’t wait ! , the problem I’ve found is the longer you wait , the stiffer all your working muscles around your hip stiffen, it’s taken me almost a full year to finally be able to get my left sock on ( and I’ve been following a rigorous stretching routine since the surgery ) it’s so incredibly nice to have full mobility again .

I have a work related injury in my back. there is nothing wrong with my hips, but the pain is terrible from the arthritis. It alone has caused me to loose strength in both legs. Don't ever get hurt at work. The medical system is not designed to help injured workers as your doctor does not have enough lawyers in their office.

[@timothyseavey3243]

squats, even partial ones, are the best way to strengthen weak hips. You can do them anywhere and just your bodyweight alone will provide adequate resistance. Begin with just four or five and build up from there.

I'm a senior now with RA and OA ; I don't have hip pain but every other pain, especially my knees ( one in particular that is horrendous and swells daily ) My rheumatologist drains it now and then and I am on tons of intense meds include chemo for it all. My question is , can I DO something about being knock kneed ? The very first arthritis doc I had , told me that is why my knees were bad. But nobody else ever mentioned it or if it is fixable or at least can I strengthen supporting muscles for it..
