Hip replacement fixes the joint, but recovery means rehabilitation of the neuromuscular system that runs it. Research shows 50% of THA patients have clinically significant hip abductor weakness at 1 year postop without structured rehab that extends well past the 6-week mark. The surgery is the beginning, not the finish line. https://kpjmd.com/ask/hip-replacement-recovery-week-by-week-what-to-expect/?utm_source=kpjmd_social&utm_medium=social
