I had a total hip replacement anterior approach 9 weeks ago. I haven't been over doing walking or therapy due to having knee pain on the same leg. I've been icing and heating and its not getting any better. Has anyone had this happen to them?

knee pain is a real set back. once you can get it under control like icing until swelling clears not much else can be done except wait. my last revision my knee was really swollen bad and funny i never had issues with that knee before. lots of reason why i wont go into but in time in a few weeks it will get better. a pain patch helped a lot and rest knee up on a pillow . only do what you feel comfortable doing. cant rush healing of knee or hip... sooo take this time to find ways that keep you happy and distracted from this current issue. this will pass too. chocolate helps too.
