i have always heard knee surgery is worse than hip replacements and i have seen two ladies with knee surgery by two
different doctors both were senior citizens and both had surgery on knees same day they were both in exercise area
with me and one of their legs looked perfectly normal except for where the stitches were. The other ladies leg was black
& blue from the top of her thigh down to her ankle. big difference. it is hard to remember but i believe i only missed about
6 weeks of work with my first hip replacement and perhaps only 4 weeks with my 2nd the difference was they had a machine
that kept my legs moving constantly in bed after the surgery and started me on water therapy as soon as i was relesed from the hospital. alot of things contribute to the healing process and some do go faster than others.
