[QUOTE="crumblecookie, post: 290913, member: 37264"] Hi Sarah Thanks for your reply. My daughters' father in law had internal stitches and external glue when he had his hip done in January, I have had 39 staples so have a lovely long scar from top of buttock down to lower hip area. Different hospitals, different methods, especially as my last hip replacement was done micro surgery by robots, hardly any scar at all.I am still having district nurses 2 x a week because of a blister on the wound which insists on weeping!I would not wish the muscle spasms on anybody and I am glad I only suffered them 3 nights then they disappeared. No one seemed to know why I had them, nobody else had, they said. Must have been my body just being awkward.The best thing about this new hip replacement is having a much better nights sleep. No waking up 4/5 times a night with the pain. I just need to feel up to tackling the stairs to get out of my flat then I can start walking a little more than just up and down the communal landing :lol: Best of luck with your recovery too.
