This is major surgery and most people elect to have it because of debilitating pain, no mobility/range of motion or because of injury and they no longer have any quality of life. For most people it's the last resort. You may want a 2nd opinion.

What convinced me was the x ray which showed the hip and in the words of the consultant "its a bit of a mess isn't it ?". Whilst not being an expert there was no gap in the hip which confirmed as to why I had the pain in the first place
It is obviously diffrent for everyone but for me the decision was the right one
Best wishes
