Aqua aerobics
Posted , 10 users are following.
I am now 12 weeks pst op after THR no real complications apart from bad knee ,but had steroid injection in that last week to help with the pain whilst the knee realigns itself which does seem to be working .
Is it safe to do some aqua aerobics now or is it too soon ??

sorry the previous reply shot off the screen uninvited as I was attempting a spelling error! Basically I am trying to determine just what is, or isn't, advised. For instance when,or if I can slop through calf deep estuary mud to get to my boat and then can I pull and push quite heavy things around while manoeuvring. Also would like to eventually ride my veteran motor cycle but this requires kick starting, nobody seems able to advise if or when this may be possible.
So perhaps you may find a source of advice that is relevant for me, if so, or if anyone else wishes to comment, then please do?

When you do go I would tell the leader about your surgery, maybe watch a class to see what movements she uses and then decide whether that class fits you or not. Some areas do a GP referral for exercise where they help you to choose the right combination of exercises for you, I would ask about anything in your area.
Hope everything settles down.

I would have the lateral approach.
I have numbness left side of my leg.That goes over the knee. I have femoral neral nerve issues.
My knee hurt add much as my hip surgery.which surprised me.Also I was swollen from my hip to my toes. It wasn't until I had the injection of steroids that made life possible..
Really search the different methods and choose what's best for you. Believe me your knee will be hurting really bad after if you have the anterior THR

I'm five months now.Still can't pick up that leg when I'm sitting to put it my jeans. However I can stand Ann's March lifting that in my cardio class.
I had my lunar spine totally re built three yrs. Ago.
I had six lamunectomuy sp off.and six spinal fusions.b/c couldn't sit on both sides my butt, my spine bowed out.So I also had that straightened with 8 bars and screws. The doctor also found two holes in the spinal cord with the dura pushing through. So he had to repair it. I have not had any trouble since surgery with the back.
This ortho doctor was careful not to undue that surgery. S since they do a lot of hammering.

So many do very good with Anterior but I sure haven't.and I know you have your issues.
Read about your back surgery(s) and omg, my MRI's read like science fiction stories of the back, but I won't do any more surgery unless I'm run over and unconsous. I've heard some good stories on those back surgeries and heard some horror ones too.
I never thought they were such a crapshoot until this hip.
