Sevete groin pain

I am 7 months post hip replacrment. I was very committed to my physical therapy. At 2 1/2 months I developed severe and debilitating groin pain and was back on a cane. To confirm the diagnosus of iliopsoas tendinitis as the cause of psin, my tendin was injected with lidocaine. The pain completely went away., but only for a few hours as Lidocane only lasts that long. My pt was completely changed and lying down is the omly comfortable position so I have rested the tenfon slot. Now at 7 months the pain has not let up. Got a second opinion, bone scan, mri. It is that tendinitis. Geeting a steroid shot into the tendon and was tolf if thst did not help the next strp is a tendon release surgery. Wondering if anyone has had thst done and whether it redolbed the groin pain. I am a 67 yr old gemsle, 6 feet tslk snd thin and athletic. At leadt i was very athletic up until my total hip replacement. Thank you.
