Be sure to ask your doc if the anterior hip replacement is appropriate in your case. Also know that not all surgeons can perform this technique. My wife had this procedure done. The operation stated at 7:00 am. At 3:00pm she walked to the car and we went home. She didn't even use half of her prescribed narcotic pain meds (10 tablets). Physical therapy consisted of performing her normal daily activities. Check out the YouTube vids.
