You look wonderful and being so positive. As far as the scar if having surgery takes this pain away it is worth it. Your young and beautiful, if the scar bothers you, get a tattoo to cover it. Thank you for making this video. 🥰

Veronica - why did you have a posterior, rather than anterior hip replacement? What I’ve found from many sources is that the second type is much easier, safer and better and it leaves just a small scar.

Hello, I had a total hip replacement 3 months ago, still need a crutch. In the video you said your doctor told you won't need a hip Revision in future. I am worried about that, I am 45 years, how old are you? Replacements can last 30 years, even more, but in the case mine lasts this time in 30 years I would be 75, and 85 in the case it lasts 40 years. Right now I am suffering muscles pain after doing the exercises... It delay my recover because the pain takes me off one day after exercising. I am really worried about being able to recover a normal life because I thought the recover would take 3 months, and it is very slow. Thanks for sharing ❤
