My Hip Replacement Surgery: What To Expect: 400+ ‘Hip Tips,’ Ideas, Examples, Suggestions and Checklists
Just a few things you will learn about hip replacement surgery - If you have made it this far, you are probably going to need to have your hip replaced. Oh, by the way, the longer you wait, the worse it gets.
Been There, Done That - I know, I know... this book is about what I went through on my way from discomfort to diagnosis to surgery to subsequent recovery.
Your Five Year Plan - When most people hear that a typical hip replacement surgery takes about 90 minutes, they think, “OK, that is easy. A short period of time, nothing to it.†In reality the time line is much, much longer. On one side of the surgery is the average one to four years you live with a bad hip before you have surgery and on the other side is the up to one year of recovery. I will share with you what to expect before, during and after your surgery.
This book includes warning symptoms, suggestions on when to schedule your surgery, what to buy (and what not to buy), the prehab and rehab exercises to perform, links to hip replacement surgery videos and how to properly share the details your upcoming surgery with friends and not-so-friends.
