My dad is 73 and has no cartilage in his right hip. He is slightly overweight, but rides his bike between 18-20 miles about 3-4 days a week. His hips started really bothering him after he started the longer rides. Is there anything you can you to help him? It’s the only thing that gives him some relief after my mother’s passing.
Thank you so much
