In the months after joint surgery, patients gradually move toward greater independence in all activities. It is important to stay active and healthy and continue to exercise, which builds stamina and endurance.
Your recovery from surgery depends on your general health before the procedure and the type of joint you are having replaced. The goal during the recovery period is to help you comfortably return to your daily activities.
While most surgeries relieve pain and improve movement, recovery does take time. Most patients need at least three to five months to get their strength and energy back.
Patients may be referred to our Department of Rehabilitation Services team or our Pain Management Service team.
Our team at the Kaplan Joint Center is more than happy to answer any additional questions you may have about surgery and your recovery.
