My mother has had a hip replacement (right hip) she normally wears pressure stockings due to swelling in her legs which are difficult to put on but she manages. Since having the operation she has been staying with us to recuperate and I have have putting on and removing the the very difficult white elastic stockings designed to prevent DVT. Soon she will be returning home, we do not live near, and she is very independent. The problem is that she has been told not to bend forward nor raise her knee but will need to put on her stockings . We would be grateful for any advice.
