Thank you. I asked my surgeon about nerve damage and he assured me there would be none! Now I’m not so sure. I’m 78 and not sure I have the energy for a difficult recovery. Thanks again for weighing in.

I’ve heard the posterior approach has no nerve damage pain, so I would trust your doctor on that! I will probably do posterior on my next hip, but I hope it lasts forever!
