How do you feel about falling?

I had two weeks in rehab and then 2 weeks after coming home. I continue to go to the gym twice a week. Part of my problem is I fell on a hip replacement. My walking is fine and going up the steps is not a problem but when coming down, my leg will not bend as it should. I become a fall risk.

@sandy148 Hi Sandy. I wonder if anyone has given you a reason why your leg doesn't bend properly allowing you to walk down steps with greater ease. Have you pursued additional PT or OT? Has anyone else on this thread experienced the same difficulty?
