It's been almost 8mts since my THR and I still have a limp some days better than others,my doc told me that I will have stiffness & pressure he said that it would get better just continue to do my excises and I do everyday & night. Are there anyone else going through this?
Hi Lora
I have had both hips replaced the 1st over 8 moths ago and the 2nd 8 weeks after. I still have days l limp and still have days l get pain and stiffness especially in one hip. They say it can take up to a year to fully recover from hip reolacements but l still think l will be like this for a long time. My hips are great and l would not change them but l do have my bad days.

I'm stiff when I get up either from lying down or sitting. Once I get going I'm ok. Doc said it would be 4-6 months. Hope he's right.
Thank you, my hip feel good also
You're right about lying down or sitting to long I do be really stiff. I pray that you and me get better.
Hallo, ich soll in zwei Wochen meine erste Hüftoperation bekommen 😊 beide müssen gemacht werden aufgrund von schwerer Arthritis, ich bin Krankenschwester und weiß also, was mich erwartet.
Ich bin erst 2 Wochen nach der Operation. Bin zum Arzt gegangen. Muss mehr laufen und Übungen machen. Darf auf der Seite mit Kissen zwischen den Beinen schlafen. Ich habe immer noch etwas Schmerzen, das ist anscheinend normal. Ich humple aber der Arzt sagte, das könnte sich in den nächsten 6 Wochen ändern. Mal sehen, was passiert.
Tomorrow I will be 10 weeks post bilateral hip replacements. I still feel very stiff and down my left thigh...below the scars area ...I get an ache that I can only describe as a toothache would feel. It is mostly a dull throbbing ache but sometimes feels sharper. I don't get the same feeling in my right leg. Hopefully it is just a healing pain.

Ich habe Schmerzen in meinem Oberschenkel, aber ich bin erst zwei Wochen nach der Hüftoperation. Hoffentlich geht das weg. Zumindest hat das der Arzt gesagt. Ich hoffe, es wird dir bald besser gehen und alles wird bald gut sein. Madla
Ich bin 6 Monate postoperativ und habe kürzlich eine beunruhigende neue Hinkheit, einige Schmerzen im Hüftbereich und im zugehörigen Knie entwickelt. Die Röntgenaufnahmen sehen für die Hüfte in Ordnung aus, aber es scheint, dass Übungen und Dehnungen notwendig sind, um die Muskeln im Oberschenkel, der Hüfte usw. zu stärken. Ich bin mir nicht ganz sicher, ob ich die Physiotherapie brauche, die ich gerade zum ersten Mal begonnen habe, aber es scheint klar zu sein, dass selbst einfache Dehnübungen für mich notwendig sind. Die Hinkheit kommt zwar manchmal zurück, ist aber jetzt nicht mehr konstant.
Hi, I had a THR a few years ago and am due to have the other side done at some point. After my first I was limping still at about 10 weeks. My physio recommended using an exercise bike. Less than a week after starting to use it my limp was gone. The bike was strengthening my muscles. I still use it.
Danke für den Rat, ich muss noch weitere 10 Wochen warten
Ich bin erst zwei Wochen nach der Operation. Aber danke dafür. Madla

Yes Dash same. I constantly have pain still and when I step with every step. I also Parkinson's disease which doesn't help things. I don't hesitate to use my cane or a walker if it helps. My situation is different I know because of the Parkinson's but I keep exercising and Just give myself mentally a logger timeline and every day is going to be different. It's a huge operation. At change his leg length, I also have a pretty serious scoliosis and it's complicated to figure out what's what. So I just did my best with exercise, physical therapy, massage, have a rest and i and anti-inflammatories When bneeded
Ja, ich bin mir sicher, dass Sie recht haben. Ja, ich bin erst seit zwei Wochen heute. Danke für so ein nettes Kompliment und Trost, das bedeutet mir viel. Große Umarmung

Hi Lora!
I am a little over a 1 1/2 years out.
I still have a slight limp especially if I'm tired.
And I still have pressure and stiffness especially in the morning trying to get out of bed.
Take your time!
Everybody heals at a different pace so don't rush it!
You'll get there>
Good luck to you!
Yep - I will be 12 months this coming weekend, just over 10 months since revision, and get similar pain and limp days ... I have resumed the Bio Oil massage of the scar, and use extra cushions at work and in the car.
I am also still unable to sleep for long on the operated side. Timed it last night, after 10 minutes it was unbearable .
I think we just have to keep up the exercises.
Thank you
Thank you and yes it gets uncomfortable to sleep on my surgery side, at times it feels like I'm sleeping on something hard.
Yes, that's it - just the same here - just like you can feel the hardware inside.
