Pain in outer pelvis area and lifting leg

Hi everyone,

It's me again ?? I've got a couple of questions if that is ok.

Firstly, I've got a pulling, sore area between my thigh and my waist..the pelvic area? All on the outer aspect. Did anyone else have this? I had a posterior uncemented approach.

Secondly, I've been trying for a couple of days now to lift my operated leg slightly off the bed when I'm lying down but can't seem to do this. It's as though my leg is made of concrete!!! I'm 6 weeks post op tomorrow and due to see the physio on Tuesday. Just wondering if there is any advice from someone who has had a similar thing.

Thanks in advance for any replies I might get,

Healing wishes to you all,

Jacqui xx
