Best Way To Use A Cane Or Walker After Hip Or Knee Replacement 

I had my first knee replaced less than two weeks ago and this video really gave me the heads up for using a cane. Thank you!

I'm 8 days in after a hip replacement, I use the cane inside my apartment. I have begun using the walker up and down the hallway of my building. Thanks for the video.

Great introduction! Hope to see a video demonstrating the use of both for stairs and curbs! 😊 So many patients push to soon to go from the walker to the cane. Listen to the PT folks.

I’d love instruction on correct cane use,thanks

You fellows are terrific! Thanks so very much!

Love and appreciate your helpful videos.

Thanks Docs, I am getting closer to my surgery finally at least by February for first surgery, thanks for your helpful information. Have Merry Christmas!

Drs guess what I am using topical cream. It's working but I still need surgery. I see the Dr. In 2 weeks. It will be interesting to see if it will work until seeing the surgeon. Again thank you. I feel better. ❤

Very interesting video docs! It’s very important to know how to use the proper walker or cane after knee or hip replacement surgery or before.

I was seeing my primary care doctor yesterday for a pre-op check up before hip surgery in a few days and she commented on why I had the cane in my left hand my right hip was bad. I couldn't believe she wouldn't know that. Well, she's just primary care, not orthopedic, but still I would think she would know that. I demonstrated why you use the opposite side for the cane, the "tripod" effect. Of course with a good left hip and a totally worn out right hip the cane is useless in my right hand.

Awesome 👌 thanks a ton .🥰❤

How does one use a walker if one leg is non weight bearing ?

How many days, months, prior to surgery do I do these?

Thank you!! On a rainy day can I use an umbrella 🤣

What about using crutches, or a crutch?

What about using a walking stick instead of a cane?

What about a double tkr? How soon can one get walking?

Do you think I could use a hiking pole instead of a cane?

Why have 2 wheels on the walker, as opposed to no wheels?

Can I use alpine sticks instead - I can't stand the thought of a cane. My physio suggested crutches instead of that walker right after surgery...

I had hip labral surgery and was using a cane for awhile but I was walking very slow and could not keep up with others. I tried a rollerator and I move much faster. Is it ok to get this if I am 2 months post op?

Great video! 👍👍👍👍

Wish you doctors were in Clarksburg, WV.

Thanks so much for the helpful video
