Elevated toilet seat: After arthroscopy of the hip, you can typically sit with your hip flexed up to a right angle, or 90 degrees. Otherwise, an elevated toilet seat can be helpful.

Yes: My typical restrictions for my patients are with regards to weight bearing when walking and twisting of the hip. Sitting is ok.
