Broken Hip Recovery
Recovering from a broken hip typically involves surgery followed by physical therapy to restore mobility and strength. Early movement after surgery is crucial for regaining function and preventing complications. While pain usually lessens after four to six weeks, it can take up to a year to fully recover from a broken hip.

Anterior Hip Anatomy for the Open Hip Preservation Surgeon
Supine, anterior-based hip surgery has been popularized over the last few decades, not just for arthroplasty but also for hip preservation indications. Hip surgeons have employed anterior approaches to safely perform periacetabular osteotomy (PAO), femoral osteochondroplasty, and open reduction of femoral neck fractures while minimizing the risk of disrupting blood supply to the femoral head, often in a muscle-sparing manner.

Removing the sling reduces pain immediately after shoulder surgery
A broad arm sling is traditionally applied following shoulder surgery for protection of repair and ‘for comfort’. It has never been proved however that the use of a sling actually leads to reduced pain. The aim of our prospective study was to quantify a patient's immediate post-surgical pain with and without a sling, with the hypothesis being that it is in fact more comfortable not to have it on.
