Day 3 post op
My husband (60m) had LTHR, anterior approach earlier this week and so far, everything has gone smoothly and positively.
After a year of suffering from severe bone-on-bone arthritis, he was barely able to walk before his surgery. When he took his first pain-free steps on his new joint, I shed tears of joy!
He’s early in the healing process, but we are following all the PT guidelines and ice/elevation regimen. So far he is relieved that he had this done and his attitude toward his future recovery has completely turned around. He has his spark back!
If you’re feeling anxious like we were about this procedure, here’s another positive story to motivate you. Happy healing!
