Subject: 1st round since Dec 12th hip replacement
|
I got cleared to play golf last friday after my total hip replacement.
First time I touched the clubs since December 11th. I played 9 holes,
walked free of pain except when watching the majority of my shots:-).
Didn;'t keep score, just wanted to get back on the course. Probably
took about 60 shots, and 5 were actually pretty good. Actually shot par
on a 205 yd par three, but the other holes, it looked like I hadn't
swung a club for weeks. topped most of my shots, etc.
Anxious to get back into the game.

I'm getting off rotator cuff problems and recently got the okay to play.
Do what the doctor says and ask a lot of questions about what you can
and can not do when it comes to physical activities. You may learn few
things about why injuries happen the way they do.

WOW! I wasn't cleared until 3 months. And I still can't walk 18 holes
after 3 years. What's your secret?

Either he ignored the doctor's orders or had minimally invasive surgery that
doesn't require observing hip precautions.
A big danger for golfers early in THR recovery is slipping on soft or wet
golf courses injuring soft tissues that are still healing setting your rehab
back days and weeks.
Given you actually did the rehab, if you can't walk 18 ( four miles) after
three years, find another OS and get reevaluated since the first guy might
have fucked you up big time.
