Marital Relations
Question
This is a very embarrassing but very important medical halachik question. A few years ago I had hip replacement surgery. I am constantly in pain due to arthritis. I have not had relations with my eishis chayil for 2-3 years because of the pain. Is there any way to have relations other than me on top, so to speak as it is so painful..
Answer
Shalom!
Thank you for your question.
In this case that you cannot perform the Mitsvah in the usual way then it is permitted to have relations in other positions since the primary position is too painful.
