Hip recall/hip revision. Sux.

Did your hip replacement get infected? Yikes! The surgeon who replaced my hip told me that there are two thing I *don't* want to have happen to my hip 1) dislocation 2) infection.He told me I have to take an antibiotic before dental appointments for the rest of my life.

Same advice here. That’s standard for hip or knee replacement.
Mine recalled hip didn’t show voids or necrosis on the MARS mri but after Revision dead tissue and void pockets were apparent. Cultures went wild. 1 week out from surgery. I’m doing the protocol but opted to do it out of hospital. Least I can control the germs here :)
