Sorry I'm having a thick moment......had he fractured the pelvise before the hip operation? or afterwards?
I'm sorry......I think the best thing to do is talk to the consultant or even the GP to get some help.
Hope he recovers soon

sorry to here your news ,,,,,it is still early days for you both , just be there for him ,make him feel safe ,
I had my hip replaced 5months ago , during the op the surgeon fractured my pelvis, I now have it plated and screwed back together ,with my new hip ! Not what I was expecting to be told when I woke up from the op ,to start with ,
I Felt I had been nailed to the bed , I have found the whole ordeal very painfull and for the first 6weeks not able to weight bear, had X-rays,then the next 6weeks only part weight bear , I was taking pain relief 4hourly,which I needed to help me move around, I had a phyiso that came to my house (once out of hospital)every week , and after 12week iv had hydro therapy ,which has been great ,
now 5month on I'm back driving , doing Aqua exercise twice a week , ,Im starting to feel like I have my mojo back .
starting back to work in 2weeks ,good luck to you both yvonne xx uk
