How long does it take to recover?
The majority of people who undergo total hip replacement are able to participate in a majority of their daily activities by six weeks. By three months, most people have regained much the endurance and strength lost around the time of surgery, and can participate in daily activities without restriction. However, people make gains for up to a year after their hip replacement. While daily activities have resumed, it is important to avoid high impact activities to give you the best long-term outcome with your hip.
