Medical care after hip joint surgery
recovery

After the hip joint surgery, you will be transferred to the recovery room, where your consciousness will be monitored until the effect of the anesthesia wears off completely. You will then be transferred to the intensive care unit. After the transfer, the relevant doctor will explain to you the full details about the time to walk or move.

getting out of bed

Usually within the first 6 hours after hip surgery, a nurse or a physical therapist will help you get out of bed. You can walk with two special canes until you can walk normally. If you feel pain, tell the nurse to use sedatives to relieve your pain. If you are active and practice walking, you can go through the healing process faster.

Walking with crutches after hip surgery

Place your hands next to the cane, so that the handle is next to your wrist. Turn your cane and step your foot forward. Then drag the unoperated leg one step ahead of the operated leg.

Suitable exercises for hip joint surgery

In this section, four exercises are discussed to increase the range of motion and strength of your hips. Start these exercises before the operation and continue for 6 weeks after.

If necessary, take medicine 30 minutes before exercise.
Do the exercise twice a day.
Repeat each exercise 3 to 10 times.
Walk 1 to 3 times per session
Suitable sports

First exercise: lie on your back, slowly bend the operated leg and return to the first position. After the injury has healed (usually 2 weeks after surgery), use your hands to help move the operated leg. Whenever you feel a stretch in the hip joint, stay in the same position for a few moments.

Second exercise: lie on your back, both knees away from each other and then close together. Repeat this.

The third exercise: lie on your back, put pressure on the floor with the palms of your hands and pull your hips up. Pause for a moment and then slowly return to your starting position.

Fourth exercise: Stand on your feet using a crutch. Then take a step back with the non-operated leg and put your weight on it and place the heel of the operated leg on the ground and raise your toes. Then put your weight on the operated leg and apply pressure to the ground with the tip of your foot. Finally, put your weight on the non-operated leg and step back. Now place the heel of your operated foot on the ground and repeat the previous steps.

Prevention of thrombosis after hip joint surgery

To prevent thrombosis, you should exercise enough and use the drugs prescribed to prevent it for 2 to 4 weeks.

going home

To go home, the nurse and doctor will assess the condition of your legs and then you can leave the hospital after agreeing to all the discharge conditions.

Home care

The wound is closed using iron fasteners or sutures and a bandage or tape is placed on it. There may be some bruising and swelling around or near the wound, but it will gradually heal, so don’t worry about it. Swelling may be seen in the first few weeks or even in the first few months, you can keep your leg elevated and use a cold compress to help reduce the swelling.

Slight changes in your body temperature are a normal part of the healing process, so you don’t need to worry about it. After surgery, your hemoglobin levels will drop, but they will gradually rebuild. The need for pain medication is not the same in all people, for many patients it may be used from a few weeks to a few months.

Health tips and things that need to be informed by the doctor:

Keep your wound dry for 24 hours after surgery.
After that you can shower as usual.
If the bandage becomes dirty, change it.
If you are bleeding, call your doctor immediately.
If the heat, swelling or redness is abnormal after surgery, contact your doctor.
If the pain of the operated foot increases, be sure to inform your doctor.
