Post Surgery Care

Recovering from Surgery
The medical professionals overseeing a surgery will offer advice and care during the recovery period and it is important to follow these instructions very closely. Frustratingly, even the most careful patients can be victims of DePuy hip implant defects.
Some of the ways you can help to take care of yourself after a hip replacement surgery include:
- Staying in bed the appropriate amount of time after your surgery
- Monitoring the condition of stitches on or near the incision site
- Attending all follow up appointments
- Using any tools offered to help ease recovery
- Taking medicine regularly
- Going to physical therapy sessions
Recovery care may be as important as the actual surgery in terms of your long-term well-being. However, if a defective medical device has made it impossible for you to recover properly, you may want to consider legal action.
