  • How long is physical therapy after hip surgery?

    Typically, patients will have home therapy for first 1-2 weeks until their first follow up with the surgeon. After that, most patients will transition to outpatient physical therapy for the next 3-4 weeks depending on progress. The main exercise after a hip replacement is walking.
