Week 12 Bhr and can’t cross my legs

[Tonybda]

Hi all,
I’m into week 13 tomorrow of my BHR.
I still feel pain when I move my leg high to the side and when I bring it back across my body.
Also is it safe to start running after 3 months?
When can I expect things to be normal.

Cheers

I'm almost 2 weeks post-op, so with that in mind; instructions from my doctor said nothing high impact, including running, for 1 year.  No more than 75% weight for the first 6 weeks, then for the rest of the year no lifting more than 40#.  But zero restrictions on range of motion.  Doctor instructions seem to vary wildly between doctors, so talk to your doctor and see what he says.

Its safe to start running 3 months OP, but increase mileage gradually, have cushioned shoes and dont run on hard surface. Stop running if feeling any pain. I started with 2-3x500m runs, now going almost 10k after 4 months of progress.

Things get back to normal day by day, each recovers differently (age and amount of rehab work differs as is the condition before surgery)

Do you get the clicking and clunking?

Hi, I’m 4 months post op, no where near as flexible as I was pre op. However I’m reliably informed by my surgeon and another I saw privately about knee partial replacement, that I am doing very well.
I’d get a definitive answer from Mr Treacy ref running.  I understand,it’s hard not to be impatient, especially if you were active before your op.
No pain no gain doesn’t apply…it’s the opposite. Be kind to yourself and your new hip
