Subject to the expert medical opinion which is available on this thread, I should have thought that your greatest problem would be a dislocation and that risk is one that can continue for some months. I tried balancing on alternate legs for periods of time before the procedure. I found that the heightened sense of balance awareness which came with doing this before surgery helped getting back to walking without sticks. Even today, some years later, I can find that I have to stop what I'm doing and just kind of concentrate on stretching the hip out. It's most usually occasioned by hurling myself too fast into a low slung car.
I'm sure it's going to be frustrating not being able to instruct while recovering. My poor old quivering body sort of paced itself and I made sure I didn't exceed what it told me although I pushed the hip limits from time to time. I can believe that dislocation is extremely painful and scary as well as being of further incapacitation. Perhaps you should take up heavy drinking for a month, a Ramadan reversal as it were?
At least if you stay flat on your back, drunk as a stoat, the time will pass pleasantly, swiftly and harmlessly enough and you can make aeroplane noises to yourself to while away the time.
