What exercises help recovery & strength after hip replacement?

Hey Cindi - get in touch with your surgeon's office and have them schedule time for you with a PT. I haven't had my hips replaced but did with both knees. Immediate post-op pain is normal. For my knees, the first week was hardest. Stick to the rehab exercises you do with the PT, and do them at home. Have the PT give you printouts of what exercises to do and how often.
You're gonna be fine!

The PT came but did not leave me with a printout of the exercises he had me do. I will ask for them next time he comes.
Thanks for saying I'll be fine; I hope so, that is why I decided to go ahead with this.
