I've just hit the 6 month point and all was going well. A couple of weeks ago I started to get pain in the hip when I sit down. It's getting worse and I'm worried. I only get it going down not getting up and not having any problems walking.

Any ideas?

    I would let my orthopedic surgeon be aware of this new type pain you are experiencing. TC Vickie

    hi julie, 

    how annoying ... is it pain pain or discomfort ? once you sit , does it go away?

    maybe a muscle ? just guessing here - redface

    how is your walking ? are you in balance or perhaps leaning a bit - i am asking this because I (still) at times, I wobble ... usually when I am rushing .. 

    is it swollen or painful when you touch the spot?

    let us know okay?

    big warm hug

    renee

    I am 6 months post thr and have constant pain when walking. I feel that the operation was a waste of time as my hip pain is no better . WHat can I do to improve myself as I  feel no better than 3 months ago.

      hi wynn, 

      you started a discussion 8 weeks ago with the same question ... I am so sorry that you are still in pain ...

      have you seen your surgeon or GP?  we are just laymen here and share our personal expriences -

      maybe it is time to make an appointment and not wait until November ..

      good luck and let us know how you are getting on, okay

      big warm hug

      renee

      Thank you for your reply. I am going today to see a new physio so I will let you know what he has to recommend . Perhaps I will get new exercises to do which will help.
