FAQ
What to Expect After Hip Replacement Surgery
Total hip replacement is a major surgery that requires a great deal of rehabilitation afterwards so your new hip joint functions well. If you’ve spent years suffering from chronic hip pain due to severe arthritis, you’re probably simply looking forward to living with less pain. Fortunately, once you’ve recovered from surgery itself, you should be able to decrease your pain medications and start living again pain free. Right after your surgery, you’ll likely wake up in the hospital with a cushion between your legs to keep your new hip joint in place. Your bladder will likely be connected to a catheter to help you urinate, and you’ll have compression socks on your legs to help with blood circulation. You’ll receive antibiotics intravenously for at least a day after your surgery. You’ll be given pain medications.
Your doctor will likely have you perform exercises for breathing to prevent lung congestion while you are inactive during your recovery. You’ll be asked to get your blood circulating by moving your muscles, including your feet. Within a day of surgery, your doctor will want you out of bed and starting to use your new hip. You’ll be taught how to keep your hip in the proper position while getting out of and moving in bed so you don’t suffer a hip dislocation.
You will begin physical therapy while still in the hospital and will learn from your physical therapist how to move around with either crutches or a walker. You could be joined by an occupational therapist who will show you how to perform your daily routine, such as getting dressed and cooking, while your hip is healing.
It’s critical to the success of your surgery that you follow your doctor’s orders on continuing with physical therapy and avoiding movements that could jeopardize your new hip. Your doctor will likely tell you not to lift your knee higher than your hip, and don’t sit down on any low chairs, couches or toilets. Toilets can be outfitted with an attachment that raises the seat level that you can use during your recovery. Your doctor will likely tell you that during your recovery you won’t be able to bend down and tie your shoes. Most patients are able to go home a few days after surgery, but some may need to be hospitalized for a week. Patients who need more intensive rehabilitation or don’t have someone at home to help them may need to go to a rehabilitation center or nursing home.
