Sitting reduces the risk of pressure sores and blood clots and facilitates the transition to standing.

They should be taught to do daily exercises to strengthen the trunk and arm muscles, and sometimes exercises to strengthen the large muscles of both legs.

They are encouraged to stand on their good leg, usually with the help of another person or by holding onto a chair or bed rail, usually within the first day after surgery.

When performing these exercises, people are instructed to touch only the tips of the toes on the injured leg.

The patient is often encouraged to put full weight on the injured leg on the second day after surgery, depending on the type of fracture and surgery.

Walking exercises are started after 4 to 8 days, when people are able to carry full weight on the injured leg without discomfort and maintain a good enough balance.
Stair climbing exercises are started immediately after walking is resumed.

In addition, patients can be taught how to use a cane or other assistive device and how to reduce the risk of falling.

For several months (1-3 months) after discharge, precautions should be taken to prevent injury.

Patients should do daily exercises to strengthen the muscles of the affected leg and trunk.

It is recommended not to lift, push heavy objects or sit in a chair for long periods of time, stand or jump.

Legs should not be crossed while sitting.

Physiotherapists should teach people to do their daily activities safely while healing patients' hips.

For example, people should align their hips correctly (in the unbent position), sit on a high stool while washing dishes or ironing.

Patients should use devices with long handles (such as hairbrush, shoehorn) that they do not have to bend over frequently.

Even after the hip has healed, it is recommended to avoid certain sports and strenuous activities.
