Does yoga help regain flexibility post a hip surgery?
Patient: I recently had drilling surgery bilaterally on hips, knees, and ankles. I find that after a month from surgery, i am still in immense pain in my knees. Would yoga be a suitable therapy treatment in helping with regaining my range of motion and flexibility? Doctor: HelloYes you may get relief with yoga therapy.Avoid full flexion and rotationYou may have good relief with physiotherapy like IFT [Interferential therapy] and TENS[Transcutaneous electrostimulation] along with ultrasound.So if possible you can start that.You can wait for a month more and then you may consult your doctor.Hope this answers your query.
