Recovery & Swimming After Hip Arthroscopy

Have any of you had hip arthroscopy? If so, I would be interested in hearing your experience post-op. I would like your suggestions on how to keep fit before I am allowed to return to the pool, and I am interested to hear what your return to swimming was like after recovery. My surgery (psoas release and possible labral tear) is scheduled for December 17, and I was told it would probably be three weeks before I am allowed to return to swimming (no kicking allowed), 3-4 months before I can return to full swimming, and 5 months before I can return to competition. How does this compare to your experience? Thanks!

  • I'm glad to hear you're doing well and back in the pool Elaine! This is great news! Thanks, Bobinator! :D So glad you're doing well! Really not looking forward to my surgery... but you give me hope that it can be better when I'm done. I feel like this now :cane: but hope to feel like this :bliss: very soon! Good luck with your surgery, Queen. Just make sure you do exactly what the doc and physical therapist says to do (and not do), and you'll be back before you know it! :agree: Good to hear Elaine - you'll be bench pressing Volvos when your done! :lmao:
