re: Anyone have a hip replacement?

My mother in law recently had a hip replacement, shes 70 yrs old. She was walking the next day! I mean she wasn't skipping around, but was actually able to walk a few steps. Blew my mind!

Could barely walk, dysplasia and bone on bone. Had mine a few years ago with Paul Buzhardt in Lafayette.

Immediate difference! Walker for a day, and a cane for two. Minimal pain. Doing my other one this spring or summer.

Make sure you get one of these machines ahead of time, they are a life saver. Cold water circulates around the area to reduce swelling and minimize pain. Some people use ice and cold water. We used frozen water bottles. Get a couple hours of 40* water. If you use water bottles make sure you remove the labels, the will come off and plug up the filter.
