I can go home after surgery, what now?


For 3 weeks after surgery it is required to take blood thinners (pills or syringe). Painkillers are taken as needed.
Physiotherapy can be started in the week after discharge from the hospital for a Total Hip Prosthesis, but with Resurfacing it is advised to wait for 3 weeks before starting physiotherapy.

Wound care is needed when the bandage is bled through, if not a nurse or doctor should check your wound after 14 days.

You can start on your hometrainer 1 week after surgery.
