Shadow zone is an area where seismograph can not be detect earthquake after the seismic wave have passed through the earth. When earthquake strikes, seismic wave radiate out spherically from the earthquake's epicenter. At the angular distances of 104 degree to 140 degree from the earthquake focus, any direct P waves are not received.
Questions about bending over after Hip replacement. I just read in another thread a reminder of not bending over for 6 weeks after surgery. It has prompted this question. I guess I should ask the PT, but I'd also like input from folks who have been there. First, let me tell you about my job.
Surgery is done to keep the broken pieces of the hip in place so they can heal faster. Some kinds of broken bones heal on their own in a cast. But a broken hip is not likely to heal well without surgery. How Well It Works. Surgery usually works well, but you will need to be patient. Getting better will likely take a long time. And you may never be able to get around as well as you could before. Surgery is usually the best choice after a hip fracture, because it stabilizes the bone so you can move around sooner. 2 This helps prevent other problems such as pressure sores and weakness. Surgery also makes it more likely that the bone will stay in place so the fractured leg is not a little shorter than the other leg after it is healed. 2
