After reading Paddlewise for many years I have some questions and feel some of you on this great forum have dealt with this topic. I have been paddling 10k on a regular basis twice a week for the past 15 years. Sometimes more but usually not less. Most of my paddling has been in the old style Looksha III L 18-1/2 X W 22 . With added knee braces, I am in the boat fairly tight. I dont know if my paddling has anything to do with it but my left knee and hip started to feel uncomfortable in the boat and later on also while walking. It progressed to the point were a Hip-Replacement is now recommended. Does anyone think there could be an association with paddling and Hip problems? Does anyone paddle again after a hip replacement and what hip replacement did you have? I am looking at words like Zimmer MIS Mini-Incision . Anterior vs. Posterior incision. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
