Playing Football 6 months after the Hip Replacement

Due to arthritis I have suffered hip pain for a prolong time. The pain gradually became stronger, I began to limp and tire quickly. Prof. Nemec advised me to undertake the resurfacing endoprosthesis surgery which would enable me to regain back my active sports lifestyle. I have made a decision and went ahead with the operation. Six months after the surgery I started playing soccer again, for the first time after several years of inactivity. Now I play it regularly and do not feel any symptoms.
