The post op physician said everything went extremely well. They removed the dressing / bandages and gave me new band-aids. They went over the surgery in detail in a way that I could understand although it would have been nice if they had the pictures of the surgery or at least a diagram of the hip joint.
I will see Dr. Safran in about 9 days in which time, he is supposed to over the pictures of the surgery and possibly release me from the hip brace and crutches.
Physical therapy was pretty basic. I did some quad isometrics, ankle flexors, and core / ab squeezes.
I will see PT in 2 days.
Pain very tolerable - I am amazed at how little pain there is. I am down to 1 vicodin every 6-8 hrs. My shoulder and ankle were both much worse than this :)
