I am 6 months from THR. Are there any restrictions?
Should the scar continued to be massaged?

There are personal fav's of course - I don't know what is available in Capetown - people like Bio Oil which also will dimish the scar - it has a nice smell as well - I am using regular body cream (Nivea or anything that is smooth and smells nice - hmm, there is a theme here) -
I am assuming your scar is healed on the surface and closed ...
big warm hug

No real restrictions any more - but being sensibly careful.
Continuing to massage the scar - and it looks and feels good. No more unusual sensations in it ( I had a sharp stabbing like a needle at one point),and sensitivity at lower end has disappeared too.
Best wishes

I had an appointment with my surgeon at 6 months post-op. .
restrictions were released. ..Unfortunately I had trochantric bursitis and even though restrictions were released, pain had returned. .
😢
I am still massaging both scars. ..
how are you doing?
Big warm hug

I am 17 weeks post op and have been walking a lot - did a 6 mile yesterday and it hurt by the end ! i would say build up slowly but listen to your bpoday and do rest in between ! i have been doing a little too much i think ! so progress but slowly ! i was told upto a year the body is still healing.
