  • @hornytoadlizard Unfortunately you must have had a surgeon that did a poor job. I was 38 years old when I had my hip replaced. I am 59 and it still works great. I went to several doctors and made a decision based on research of all of the doctors.

  • By the way, the incision if through the front not the back or the side and the length of it is 3-5 inches, no muscles are cut, therefore you're not restricted to sitting in a certain position or cross your legs, etc. because your hips can get dislocated! AND you can drive in 2 weeks!

  • I don't know why total hip replacement patients opt to get this type of surgery when there is the Direct Anterior Approach that preserves the gluteus and femoral muscles. Recovery time is shorter than this type of barbaric surgery. More surgeons should train to do the Direct Anterior Approach. Shorter hospital stay and physical therapy. They should purchase the right equipment to perform this surgery and have pity on patients giving them less trauma, pain & faster recovery with no restrictions.

  • i work on an elective surgery ward for hip replacements and knees but never seen one done thanx for vid

  • I am 32 years old and had my hip replaced almost 3 years ago due to PVNS. Resulting after 2 ressection surgeries. It was the most horrible physical experience of my life! I am left with terrible pain, bursitis, & limited mobility. Dr.'s say I'll probably have problems for the rest of my life. YAY!!! All that for nothing. I would hope someone would shoot me before ever having another hip replacement. Especially having 2 comparable surgeries prior to that. & NO they r not gentle, med constr wkrs!

  • Lol at 1:10 it's like he's tapping out a rythym

  • From your screen name, I am guessing that you are 40? I am 45 and had both hips replaced 4 months apart, 5 years ago. If you are having alot of pain in your hip, you will be amazed at how good you feel so soon after! But don't let that distract you from the fact that you need to follow all doctors orders about using your walker, even though you feel good. It will be a long 6 weeks, but it will be worth it. My big complaint is always setting off the detectors at the airport!! Good Luck to U!

  • that shit is so nasty but i really enjoy looking at this
