I have severe osteoporosis. My doctor told me I can break both hips just by getting up. I pray every night that I don’t have a hip fracture. If it happens and I need a hip replacement I’m not sure if my bones will support the replacement part. this is great advice. Thank you so much

Oh no! I trust that you are likely learning ways to prevent falls (or at least reduce your fall risk) by improving your balance and keeping strong. I hope you continue to learn and stay safe. 🙂

Congratulations!!! You will make a great dad! How long do precautions last for? I had an hip operation 2 years ago and am still in pain and still using a rollator. My foot goes sideways at night when I am sleeping!

@yourPTguy 2 месяца назад

Thank you! I appreciate that. The timing on the precautions depends on the doctor, the surgery, and if there were ever any other complications. As such, it would really be for him/her to determine. Some of my clients like to prop a pillow at their foot (if they are a back sleepers) to keep the foot pointing straight. Sometimes the ligaments get tight and the hip gets pulled outward. A local physical therapist would also be a good person to assess this and to give some direction for sure.

My husband is 74 and had a hip replacement. He had so much muscle atrophy prior to the fall that caused him to have the new hip, that it’s even worse. It’s been 5 months and he can still barely walk with his walker. Getting up out of bed is nearly impossible. We’ve put multiple pillows at each side for his hands to press onto but he can’t bend forward. I usually have to help him bend over nose over toes. He has no ab strength either. Your video assumes the person can get up by him or her self with no walker. That is the segment I would like to see. Are there handles I can install on the bed? Still, those won’t help him get up. He is 6’3” and lean. Even the wheelchair is too short for him (going to check if it can be modified higher per your other video). Any advice?
