Operation Recovery

Asked for Female, 58 years

Asking for my mother who is due for a total hip replacement operation. I was reading that THR people should not bend, pick stuff etc. She is home alone as we are a working couple. I want to know is this permanent or just for recovery period from the operation? Please advice.

Dear Patient,

I'm sorry to hear this. Kindly consult an orthopedic on the recovery period and lifestyle changes post-surgery as they can guide you about the accurate risks and duration of recovery.
Usually if the surgery is successful then this is a limited time of recovery where the patient is immobile, you could consider keeping a helper for her in this period.
