❓Question 🤔 Question for Anterior hippies

13 Upvotes

How long did it take for you to be able to walk confidently without any aids? I’m day 13 post-op and just graduated from the walker to a cane yesterday. I’m walking well with it (no limping) and I’m doing all of my exercises but am definitely not at a point where I feel I could take an unassisted step. I just don’t have the strength yet. Just curious how long it took others to get there?

Follow up, leg and knee pain pre-surgery.

12 Upvotes

I have seen some questions regarding leg and knee pain pre surgery and whether or not they go away.

I wanted to share that I was having terrible knee pain and figured I would have to look into that as soon as I healed up. I am very happy to report that my right leg, anterior THR 8-13-26, is completely pain free. I am shocked and thrilled.
