EXERCISES CAN HELP IN MANAGING TOTAL HIP REPLACEMENT.


Exercises are an important part of managing total hip replacement (THR) and promoting proper healing. Physiotherapy exercises, such as range-of-motion exercises, muscle strengthening exercises, and balance exercises, are typically recommended after a THR to help improve mobility, reduce pain, and prevent future complications. It's important to consult with a physical therapist or your doctor for a personalized exercise plan that fits your specific needs and progress.
