    I would get another opinion, doctors are fallible too, and make mistakes or miss things like everyone else. Pain is not part of the healing process.

    Best wishes

    I agree with Graham. You should definitely get another opinion. I hope you get an answer and solution soon.

    I too suffer some pain following a hip replacement one year ago last August and a second one this April. My pain is probably not as severe as yours. I'm fine around the house. But when I take my dog for a walk I have groin pain in the left side (done over a year ago) and shin pain on my right. Sometimes my left leg seems to give way at the knee. I have had a bone scan and a nerve test, neither of which showed anything. I see the surgeon again in December to see if there is any improvement. Last night when I walked, the pain was minimal. Other days it is much more pronounced. So I have no idea what could be going on.

    From personal experience only, I had my THR just over a year ago and all went well until I put too much strain on the Piriformis Musle which, in turn, grated alongside the Sciatic Nerve at the top of my Femur. My point it there do seem to be a lot of different aches and pains after surgery and I because it is major surgery it is only probable that we get these problems from time to time.
