Product Details
Knee replacement, hip surgery, and spine surgery leave women with strict movement restrictions that make standard shorts impossible to put on. Stepping into shorts, pulling them up, and adjusting at the waist all require exactly the movements that post-surgery protocols forbid for weeks.
Aasra's post surgery shorts for women open completely along both sides with velcro. Lay them flat, place your legs inside without stepping, and close the velcro panels from the outside. No bending, no stepping, no caregiver lift needed — made for women in the most challenging weeks of orthopaedic recovery.
Who is this for?
- Knee replacement surgery — avoid full knee bend and stepping restriction
- Hip replacement and hip fracture patients — no step-in or leg-lifting required
- ACL reconstruction and knee ligament repair recovery
- Spine surgery (lumbar, cervical) — no bending at the waist
- Elderly women who struggle with conventional elastic shorts pull-up
- Stroke patients with limited movement on one side of the body
- Wheelchair users and bedridden women needing caregiver-assisted changing
- Post-hip fracture patients during inpatient or home rehabilitation
Key Features

Solid, few gripes
perfect for post op
-
Mother in law had a fracture with a full cast. Nothing else would go over it. These wrap around.
-
The full side opening is the whole point and they have done it properly. I bought a cheaper version from a marketplace first where the opening was only halfway. Useless. This one is done right.
-
Hip replacement, no bending past ninety degrees for twelve weeks. These were the only bottoms that worked. Ordered from her hospital bed.
-
Works well. Only feedback, the length is a bit short for someone who wants to sit outside or have visitors. She prefers something knee length. For inside the house it is perfect.
-
Ordered along with the pyjamas. Both good. Will order the kurti next.
-
Amma is 84 and very particular about how things feel. She has approved these which almost never happens.
-
Looking after her is far less exhausting now
-
Soft cotton, no itching, she wears them all day
-
Good shorts. Waist is a bit loose on L, we added a safety pin. Otherwise no complaints.
-
My mother in law is 88. She approved these on day one which almost never happens with anything I buy her.
-
Cotton is soft, she has sensitive skin and no irritation. That was my main worry.
-
Product is good. Took seven days to reach Siliguri though the site says two to three. Plan ahead if you have a surgery date.
Response from Aasra
So glad the mornings got easier. Thank you for taking the time to write.
-
Good quality, fast delivery to Hyderabad
-
She fell and fractured her pelvis. Completely bedridden for two months. The attendant changed her alone every day because these wrap on rather than pull up.
-
Second pair. First one is seven months old and still fine. That is why I am buying more.
-
comfortable for summer
-
Bought for myself post ACL. I am 36. Slightly odd ordering from a brand aimed at elderly people but these are just practical shorts that open. Wore them six weeks.
-
Good quality, washed many times
-
Total knee replacement, both knees, six weeks apart. These shorts got her through both surgeries. Sides open completely so the physio can work on the knee without her moving. Bought four in the end.
-
Third order from this brand. Nighty, kurti, now shorts. Consistent quality across all of them.

Ordered in a rush before her discharge. Reached in two days. The WhatsApp team confirmed the size before I paid which I appreciated.

Excellent stuff. bahut acha hai.

She is bedridden after her fall. The attendant can change her without lifting her legs at all. Before this it needed two of us.
-
Cotton is soft, she has very thin skin and no irritation in four months of daily wear.
Response from Aasra
Really happy to hear this. More colours are coming later this year.
-
She is on dialysis and swells badly between sessions. These accommodate the swelling without cutting into her legs.

Bought two pairs before her surgery on the advice of a friend whose mother used them. Best advice we got during the whole process.
-
Ordered with the kurti during their buy 2 offer. Both good.
-
Mother had a hip replacement at 78. Not allowed to bend for three months. These were the only bottoms she could manage. Ordered from the hospital bed after the surgeon told us about the restrictions.
