Total Hip Replacement - Exercises 9-12 Weeks After Surgery

[@lauretteraby8425]

Hi guys I'm 60 and broke my hip on March 16th 2023. Surgery on the 17th. I am without medical insurance and had to forego the PT. Sent home on the 20th sound enough, that through the PT in the hospital, she taught me how to climb the stairs, good foot up, bad foot down. I was able to do so first night home. Sent home with exercises to do. I was always searching for more exercises. I came across Your KZbin yesterday, May 2nd! I'm so happy to have found you! The routines are wonderful but I'm still not walking without the walker or cane. I felt more positive yesterday after the exercises that I was able to walk through my apartment. I still have a way to go. I just wanted to say thank you!😊

[@ZeldaSews]

That walking around without assistance is great. It has been a year since you posted. How are you doing now?

[@susanv7415]

I went back to work at 6 weeks to a physical job of 10+ hours a day on my feet. Daily swelling as expected. Not so wise in hindsight. Developed a DVT....so now I'm being told to be quiet for a week while the bloodthinners do their job. I was back in the gym...really feeling great. This setback has really done me in.

[@mandarinlearner]

I'm living in the boondocks with no access to PT and your videos are invaluable for my recovery. Great job guys!

[@binniparis8024]

I was in a wheelchair for 2 yrs waiting for x2 different hip replacements. I was told it was unlikely I'd walk again but I went to hydro x3 week and volia. .. Im walking again. So greatful to be mobil again, so greatful for free medical in Australia. Op and rehab cost me $0. Feeling very greatful. Xx

[@denniskirk5466]

Just had a hip replacement in my left leg. In my second week. I love Bob and Brad. Been watching their videos for the last year. I'm 34 years old and these exercises help. I'm almost walking normal

[@nicetobe17]

Thank you so much for these numbers of exercises that help advancing my 4 th week of post op THR, right , posterior approach.

[@valiantsinagomelsky8733]

Thank you guys!!! You are doing a wonderful job of actually helping people, as opposed to paid therapists?

[@sandyguevara1933]

Thank you for these. Detailed of how were supposed to do. Better than my outpatient PT.

[@joemaxant]

Hi, I'm 7 weeks out of my hip replacement and have been doing a number of these exercises with physiotherapists. I like the series that you put together in a comprehensive package. Good stuff!

[@chrisbyrne8687]

Thanks guys. I am into week 10 this week. I have been walking with a cane since week 2 of my hip replacement(my surgery was same day discharge and I walked out of the hospital) and was walking about 4 kilometres a day broken up into two session up until about week 7. Gave up cane at week 6. I have been doing almost all of these exercises since week 4-5. Then at week 9 I started to experience knee pain (my knee is also in need of replacement with little to not acl,mcl, miniscus and cartilage). This pain started as I was doing the stretching my quad exercise (laying on stomach with band tied to my ankle, pulling ankle forward) and the balancing on my surgery leg on a piece of foam. I stopped those two exercises but my knee is still hurting quite a bit. So I am back walking with a cane. Not happy. My surgeon suggests 12 weeks on hip precautions but honestly, if it wasn't for the knee pain, I would be back to full on walking with no cane. I don't know if this knee pain will ever subside. :(

[@pamgibbons375]

5 exercises….? I counted 7: squats, hip abduction, hip extension,calf toe raises, marching, wall slides, single leg stance …..thanks guys ! ❤ love all your videos….this old lady 9 weeks po posterior hip replacement….2 nd hip ..first one anterior 8 years ago and both knees past two years…not my first rodeo…….😊

Hi guys, I like your exercises I am doing all those and it’s six days after a double hip replacement. I feel that at 9 to 12 weeks I’ll be doing cartwheels.

[@judyfasola3737]

How are you doing

[@raymondmiller5098]

Are all of these exercises appropriate to do regardless of whether your incision was posterior or anterior???

[@Phuongnguyen-zr1in]

Thanks for the video.

[@vandasutherland8037]

Very helpful tips

[@khushigandhi4714]

This was really helpful 😊

[@joangorettihopkins1971]

I think Bob and brad are Really professional and very easy to follow their exercises. I'm going for a hip replacement on Thursday 12th May.

[@debbie2027]

Love laughing while I learn ... Thanks !

[@yokoarcher2607]

Hi great video. Many thanks. I am wondering generally when swimming or water exercise is recommended after the posterior surgery ?

[@josieyearall7498]

I'm 9 weeks post hip replacement. However I still need my other hip done so am struggling. I'm in the UK and we don't get any help after the 6 weeks. I'm not sure what I should be doing. I still have severe arthritis on my left side but am pleased with the new hip. Arthritis pain gone but still have muscle pain despite doing exercises given for the first 6 weeks and walking daily but will have to use a walking aid due to y left hip. I'm on a list for my second op but it could be months away. Makes mecfeel really low

[@waynecurrid4311]

Great video guys. 14 weeks into my second hip replacement really struggling compared to the first one I had two years ago like chalk and cheese.🤦🏻‍♂️😢 Love the step variation. The slower I do it I can feel the muscles working 💪🏼

[@judyfasola3737]

I'm at 12 weeks ...on left ...having other hip in August...can't use step I'm so sad ... still hurts ... did you have this problem 😢

Hi i done left hip replacement surgery last year October the right did it this year July now i just saw you did one hip replacement surgery excerse only

[@danielpaul3108]

Hip replaced 5 month's ago. Inpatient and in home physical therapy. 2 month's ago, Surgeon recommended outpatient pt. Still have all hip precautions in place. Still using a can. Have a horrible limp and physical therapist just continue saying it'll take time to heal. Is this going to take year's?

[@icynok]

at what stage should i be able to put my own shoes on and bend completely down to do toe touches? im 37 and getting a Left hip replacement in a few months due to Arthritis and wear and tear (bone on bone)

[@wendystewart1867]

Had hip replacement 2 months ago Still can't take a bath or put on socks 😊

[@dreadnotpop]

How often do you suggest doing these exercises?

[@bantumwt]

People might consider the Direct Anterior method of hip replacement. No muscles are cut and the recovery time is generally much shorter.

[@heathermbambeni529]

I agree 100 % I had mine last year October,did not have any restrictions at 6 weeks I was already walking without crutches

[@bantumwt]

@@heathermbambeni529 I was pretty fit except for my hip when I had my hip replaced by the Anterior method. And I had zero rehab and zero physical therapy. I was walking around the block with a walker in 2 days. The swelling lasted for about 10 days. Just needed to stop and raise the leg for awhile. In 13 days I was back to work doing light construction. Have never looked back and I feel 20 years younger after a couple years of limping around with a cane.

I had hip revision surgery 6 months ago and I still can't put my full weight on that leg. With the other hip replacements surgery I was able to do these exercises. What exercises will help build abductor?

I am now three months after hip replacement and I am struggling with lower back pain

[@syedaasfia2808]

Both hips replacement surgery I got so pls

[@mobilidade4269]

Excelente

[@ABSallah1]

So I am a PT however very new. One question I have is if the orders dont have any precautions for anterior approach, should you still follow restrictions for anterior approach. This really isnt something from a textbook but all DOs have their own precautions and some different from what we learn in school.

[@binniparis8024]

Hey guys. Thanks a mint. Videos great. Binni. Australia. 🇦🇺 xx

Thanks for watching!

[@shaheenjunaid3161]

I requested knee replacement exercises please

[@cgrovespsyd]

Thank you! Even though the “professionals” said I was way ahead of normal regarding recovery (by 1.5 or so months) I found some of these to be very useful! They are excellent exercises no matter how well you are doing and will hasten recovery.

[@darinalumar7748]

Is this for the anterior method?

[@minilroy8774]

Is it ok for Core decompression done for AVN for both hips.? It's 9 weeks now and I'm walking without the help of a Walker.

How many times week do you do these exercises if you are in this stage of recovery?

[@derlachendevagabund7942]

What did you do wrong to come to the point of needing a total hip replacement? This (sure uncomfortable) question should also be answered.

[@lisazajicek8144]

Both hips replaced at age 57. Severe arthritis in both and bone on bone. It's not necessarily because you've "done" anything to yourself.

I was diagnosed with AVN

[@gashii.lejlaa]

When i was born idk what happend but the nurses messed up my hip someohow and we didnt realise untill i was 2 yrs old and that was late so i have done 4 hio replacanet syrgeries last one being 9 weeks ago!

Right side replaced, BUT I need other side replaced as I have Necrosis in left hip. So I'm very weak left side.I don't have a GOOD LEG.

can you do a clip of hip replacement long-term and different stuff from the norm? i get bored of the same exercises that i do

[@macraghnaill3553]

Every video I have watched about hip replacement assumes that patients have a "good leg". I am 12 weeks into hip replacement and am waiting for my right hip to be replaced as both hips were as bad, should of been replaced June and December 2020. [covid stopped operations] I am walking 4 to 5 miles daily [over 3 walks] but still need crutches/walking sticks as my "good leg" does not work very well and is very painful [exercises make it worse]both hips had collapsed and the criteria for collapsed hips I don't have

@@macraghnaill3553 I feel for you. The last month before my surgery was awful. The surgery and first 4-5 weeks after are tough also but the end result is worth it. I'm still not there yet but at 5 weeks am doing much better. Good luck.

[@macraghnaill3553]

@@guitarzan2626 As you say the first 4 to 5 weeks are not good, my first week [April 7th 2021] was in hospital, wasn't allowed out of the house for the 2nd week, so had to walk around the house, my 3rd week I was walking about 200yds along the road, then walked an extra lamp post every day sometimes over did and had to go back a lamp post for a few days[I did this 3 times daily], by week 5 I was walking about 1 mile 3 times a day, tried driving up the lane at 6 weeks, felt a bit stiff, by week 8 I was walking about 1.1/4 miles 3 times a day, once I was allowed to drive at week 8 I was walking my dog on the shore, by 12 weeks I was walking 2 miles twice a day on the shore plus 1 mile at tea time, which I still do, but as my right hip doesn't really work I still have to use 2 crutches. and now it's got worse over the past week , I may have to cut the tea time walk out I do know of someone local who had his hip replaced a few months before me, say the start of 2021, I think it was around August he went on a bike ride to another part of the country and in December he went skiing in Austria . Now you are at 5 weeks every thing should start to fall into place very soon, just go at your own pace and keep doing the exercises, I have to admit I am not so good at that at the moment

These two young dudes are a piece of work, they say whatever it comes to their minds and immediately look at each other thinking, “what d’you think of that, pretty cool right, you agree?” You know they just made that s***up😂🤣 Like the taller one when he said, “this is the glut-mid muscle that stabilizes your hip so you don’t waddle”??? I’ve never seen anyone one walk like that😂, like he demonstrated, maybe only models on the runway

[@angelad5630]

These are the exercises my Physio gave me, but helpful to see them performed. I've had two done in past ten months, the last one four months ago and I do have that waddle, so know what they are talking about. It's awkward, but not everyone is the same. My second one has proven to be much trickier in terms of recovery, but these guys make it feel like more fun doing the essential exercises

[@mariodorado2680]

@@angelad5630 thanks for sharing! Was yours anterior or posterior? Mine was the first and it was a success, no more pain when I walk or do any daily activity.. I’ve had mine done exactly 7 months ago, and I still can’t run and it’s still somewhat sore. I’m 63, in good physical shape, not overweight, I teach tennis for a living so I’ve always been involved in sports. I’ve done my PT exercises and I still do them....but good d*** it, I can’t run and that depresses me to no end.
