A member asked:
After the rehabilitation of a hip replacement, what is a normal range of motion?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Variable: The potential range of motion of each implant design is based on the diameter of the head ball, the length of the head ball, the shape and thickness of the neck section, the design of the acetabular socket and bearing. The position the surgeon places the components makes a difference. Patient factors reducing range are fat thighs and stiff and tight muscles and lack of preop range of motion.
