    Hi hatim,

    welcome to our hippies family ... 

    so sorry to hear that you still have pain in your thigh of the operated leg - I am assuming here that you have seen your surgeon and an xray was taken of your new hip? Did he say anything not being right?

    It is not unusual to feel pain or soreness there - a rod was placed inside and healing is still taking place ... it might be senstive for a year ...maybe longer -

    if it the pain is really bad, I would have it checked with my surgeon ...is he suggesting you should get another THR?

    I am not sure if I understand yoiur question regarding walking pattern ...

    sorry for the questions here -

    take it easy

    warm hug

    renee

    Oh Hatim ... how terrible - 

    if this is what happened, what other option is there than THR?
