Guest guest Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 I had increasing back pain last year as my left hip deteriorated, and mine too affected my knee and lower leg. I had several trips to the physio for treatment to the sciatic area - that helped for a while, but the real problem was my hip. I am now 7 weeks post op LTHR and am happy to report that my back pain disappeared with my old hip joint. I hope that you will find this too Lesley > I am going to have a TRHR on April 20.

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 My back pain disappered the moment I recieved the epidural before the operation, lol. Such a welcome relief!!

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 I am only 3 weeks post op so I am not sure of the results but yes I had a lot of lower back pain.My doctor said the surgery sould help some but also stressed doing abdominal crunches daily. The stronger your stomach the less pain you will get in your back. > I am going to have a TRHR on April 20.

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2004 Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 Hi Have you tried PIlates? It's great for " core stability " ie the girdle of muscles around your stomach and back. The emphasis is always on using the correct muscles to support your back. I used it for several years pre op when I couldn't do the high impact stuff I'd been doing and found it really beneficial. Of course I wouldn't advise you to take it up without consulting your OS or Physio, but my Physio was all for me continuing my routine pre op and she is going on a Pilates course soon, so that she can advise patients of suitable exercises, so I look forward to getting back to it soon. All the best Lesley > > I am going to have a TRHR on April 20. According to my new xays, > my > > right hip is shot - big time, and my right leg is now about a half > > inch shorter than my left leg.

Guest guest Posted March 10, 2004 Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 I have only taken a beginner level Pilates course, but I don't see why you could not continue w/ your pilates as long as you 1.) stay within your hip precautions, and 2.) use modified positions to protect the new joint. So, keep the operative extremity on the floor, or bent knee, with foot flat on the floor, and continue with the basic core stabilization exercises. The most important part will be getting up off the floor. Good Luck, And Yes, Pilates is much better exercise for abdominal and trunk control than just crunches!
