Post-op day 30.
I asked my doctor whether I'm allowed to tie my own shoelaces, in case he didn't want so much hip flexing at this stage. He said I had no movement restrictions.
Just in case, I asked whether I could sit crosslegged. No, he said immediately. Then he took a moment to disambiguate crosslegged (kid on a floor) from crosslegged (woman in a chair). Then he said no again to both, at least temporarily.
So does that mean I have no other movement restrictions?
I gave him the look you're picturing. He said, "Just don't go putting your legs behind your head." So I'm sort of guessing at what other unrestricted movement might be restricted and resisting the urge to cross my legs (kid on a floor).
