Post op 3 months feet still swell

From what I gather on the internet foot swelling after THR can last as long as 12 months. Are you walking? Walking is advisable. Also, my surgeon looked at my post op x-rays and said they were perfect even though now I still have pain in my thigh. Hopefully that will go away some day. I feel almost six months out that I can pretty much do everything and prior to surgery I could not do a lot.

Yes, I am walking with little pain..mostly on the operated side, pain free…a little sore if I overdue it…but the right side I need to be careful how much …not to overdue it..been doing ankle pumps, icing , and mostly everything I could do before…I’ve been lucky…but I’m scheduled for Cardiology follow up Monday..kast night the feet and around the ankle were swollen but not alarming so…this morning the swelling was gone…but like everyone has said, the gravity pulls things down…glad you are doing well and congratulations on your THR…really appreciate you getting back to me..this is a wonderful site and the mentors are very helpful and good…😃👍🏻
