Hip Replacement

[Loves2walk]

Hi....

I’m new to this forum, but familiar with HU for a condition my husband has. I’ve found it a great resource.

I have OA in my right hip and was to have a hip replacement in approx 4-6 months (in Ontario), but due to COVID, all surgeries are now delayed.

Some days are ok, but most are quite uncomfortable. I’ve always been a walker (Im 64) and finding the lack of pain-free activity difficult, not to mention the weight gain. 😩

I believe I’m doing most everything I can...massage, physio, tylenol, stretch and strengthen exercises, but if anyone has any suggestions, I’m open!

Thanks so much!

Have you tried a heating pad, Voltren Gel or Australian Dream Cream (which is amazing)?

I noticed when a storm is brewing my joint pain intensifies to the point I can’t think straight.

I have thanks, and will check is Australian Dream Cream is available in Canada. Weather sure plays a part.

Thanks for the tips!
