Re: THR, Trochanteric bursitis and abduction ex's!

Hi,

Perhaps you can propose a little "study" to see what works for ABD - use the "protocol" exercises and compare to weightbearing functional exercise and see if outcome measures are changed. Shouldn't be hard if you see that many patients a day! Which BTW is a lot of hips and knees!

The other question i had was...What period of time are you seeing the lateral hip pain and how long is it lasting. Perhaps immediately post-op, the swelling causes some muscle dysfunction which results in temporary lateral hip pain?
