When your kidneys fail, dialysis keeps your body in balance by: 1  removing waste, salt and extra water to prevent them from building up in the body. 2  keeping a safe level of certain chemicals in your blood, such as potassium, sodium and bicarbonate. 3  helping to control blood pressure.
Perhaps the most common questions patients have about hip replacement are regarding the recovery process and recovery time. There is no definite answer, as each individualâs situation differs significantly from anyone elseâs, but typically patients return to normal activity within 3-6 months.
The last step in your physical therapy will be a running program to ensure your hip flexor is healed and you are suitable to return to physical activity. How long this take varies depending on the severity of your injury. If you suffer a minor injury, you should be able to return in one to three weeks.
