Hi
 
I know people who have had hip and knee replacements and have no problems  
paddling. I believe hip recovery is easier and faster than knees. People who 
I  have had the replacements indicate you must be dedicated in doing the  
rehabilitation. Finally, make sure the doctor and the hospital specialize in 
the  replacements and do a lot of them.

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.
