I had my thigh pinned with. 3 screws into the neck of my femur just over 3 months ago. Sorry to hear of your pain although I never experienced too much of it post surgery. No, your joint hasnt healed yet, it wont fully heal for a least two years before you get total fusion!!! The surgery may have been a success as in aligning of the joint. I couldnt start rehab until week six after surgery and the specialist gave the go ahead. I had an xray last week and it shows the beginnings of new bone formation( healing) so I am happy about that. Now Im walking around with a walking stick but treading carefully. I do get tired and I can feel the muscles tightening up. I would go back to my surgeon/ specialists regarding your pain,as this doesnt sound normal to me. Best wishes.
