Any reason at 28 years old you would not be an ideal candidate for a

resurfacing implant rather than a full THR? The idea at your age is

to preserve the bone for future use. A resurf would allow you to

return to all sports and activities with no restrictions.

Hi

Ia m 28 and had a THR just under 8 weeks ago. I had to have a THR

as I was born with a congenital dislocation of the hip that was not

diagnosed until I was 16 months old. After extensive surgery,

general wear and tear meant that at some point I would need a

replacement. I made the decision after lots of pain, limited

mobility and a long conversation with my fantastic surgeon, to have

the replacement. Resurfacing was not an option.

I was fairly active before I started getting pain and used to go to

the gym, cycle and swim. I was unable to do this due to the pain

towards the end before the surgery. My consultant has said that I

should be able to return to swimming (not breaststroke for at least 3

months), cycling and gym work. He advised me against skiing,

snowboarding, running, jogging and any other hard impact on the hip

sports!!

I hope this helps and if I can be of any other help please mail me.

I know its a cliche but when you make the decision you won't regret

it.

Best wishes

Hannah

Hi

I think you should investigate hip resurfacing. I was 37 when both mine

were done here in UK (where it is the preferred treatment for young

people).

I was back riding my horse mounting from the ground at 9 weeks post op,

I cycle, run, walk, climb and am quite fit. I know several mountain

bikers, martial arts enthusiasts, and other extreme sports people who

have gone back to their sports after resurfacing no problems.

Have a look at

http://www.birminghamhipresurfacing.com/ ... a trawl but read

everything on this site

http://www.activejoints.com/resurfacing.html a fantastic site, the

author has one thr and one resurfacing

I can find you an experienced surgeon near you, or at least give you

the emails of some excellent surgeons who will give you a free email

consultation of your xrays.

If you can avoid thr and get resurfacing then it is the best thing you

can do given your activity levels

Best Wishes
