Dislocation Following Hip Replacement Posted: 03-10-07 18:22pm
I had a hip replacement in January this
year but unfortunatly suffered a
dislocation after 4 weeks. I now have to
wear a hip brace 24/7 which is very
restricting. I would be interested to hear
from any one else who could give me some
idea of the long term prognosis for
recovery.ie when can I expect to be able
to drive again or do some exercise?

Oh, dear.
Well, you still have an upper body!
I might recommend that you get a
long-rubber therapy band. They vary
according to strength. And you can
certainly target strength in the back,
arms, and shoulders. Interested? I'll
detail some exercises if you respond!
