Long term recovery problems

hi chris

look on youtube there are plenty of unstressful vidios or search goole if yours are this bad i wouldn't push yourself too much you have had two hip ops then your knees in a bad state you should no not to go beyound the 90 degree's or you will end up probbly hurting yourself.

I wish i could help you  am not the best person to really give you good advice as i have had 2 really bad hip opps done thats gone badly wrong in the last 2 yrs and never had the chance to have any exercises at all my memorys are of me laying on my back 24/7 for the hole 2yrs not been able to even sit up properly in the bed not been able to turn over or move about in bed this is only what i no

since i had them done and this was not through Atheritis but a stupid minor fall in the house thats causing me horrendas pain i have to catch sleep when i can im on morphine and parocetomol i wish i could walk a few steps i would be happy just with that im totally bedbound plz dont think im looking for sympathy im not but im sure some one might give you a bit more advice as this is all i can think of dont undo what you have worked hard and got this far for.

have you tryed and over done it too much???would a trip to your dr help you its to be hoped you havent done any harm to the hips just remember it only takes a small amount of over pushing the hips too far to cause some damage sorry i cant be of more help to you i would go see your dr have a word with him before you think about doing any more exersice and land yourself back in hospital.

your body is telling you something not to push it over the limit

youve got same name as me.

take care

chris .

I was told that cycling, swimming and aquagym are the best types of exercise for hips...I am going to see a gym tomorrow and I hope to join a few classes of pilates /yoga as well...Walking is good too; if you are looking for specific exercises I would google it!

Hi Chris

Good to hear from you...hope things get better over the next months.

Just to add that I used the hospital physio exercise advice from the hospital, and lately my gym person trainer. So...no real advice...but your body is very unique and I suss you need a professional to look you over and thus make recommendations...plus a couple of follow up Appointments to see how you getting on.

Good luck!

Try downloading an app called pocket physio. It has stages of exercises

I downloaded pocket physio for hips and knees. It might be an idea for you to start at the beginning again with these gentle exercises. All the best.

Well done Georgie. I'm week 11_today but far from riding a bike. But now to be honest I haven't been on a bike for 15 years and that time I slipped off the pedals and had a painful **** for a few days. You enjoy it!!!
