My mother-in-law had total hip replacement surgery 3 years ago. She's doing great and has had no ill effects. She's 80 but leads an active life.
The biggest restriction is bending. If you bend too far in the wrong direction the ball can come out of the socket. That's a bad thing!
They will teach you proper bending techniques which will make your new hip worry free.
