You sound like me starting with my first hip replacement back in 2019. I've had 2 other surgeries since. If you are like most of us you have or will try so many things, you're not sure what's working the best. I've used a Nova Lab red light pad for 2 weeks and I think it is helping me walk further and stay on my feet longer. Let us know if you find something that works well. I miss being able to walk without shoes sometimes. Many prayers to all living with this.
