Should I be pain free after 3 months?
Posted , 9 users are following.
Do some of you still have pain? Not a lot but just enough to let you know it's there? Also, I sometimes feel like my leg pulls down a little when I'm walking up the stairs. I still get a little pinching occasionally too. Does anybody else have this feeling?

If you're worried it's probably worth a visit to GP for reassurance.

I too feel it when walking upstairs, down is absolutely fine.
However, I know it can take up to a year and compared with my pre op pain this is much better.
Good luck with your ongoing recovery.

Not to discourage anybody here, but 17 weeks post op, I do still have pain ... however, my other hip's cartilage has gone from mild to severe in less than 6 months and this is causing the pain - my right, operated hip, is compensating now for the other one and doing a great job --
I think it is pretty normal - I was told that it might take up to 18 months ... goodness, right?
take one step, one day at a time - try not to compare your self with others either ... it is an individual process -
be gentle with your self - you are doing great !!!!
warm hug

Walking up steps to see the Lincoln memorial and the Jefferson's memorial wetter 66 steps up Syu night in marble and light rain.
My thigh hurt and also my groin. But not server pain. The bathrooms were like 18 inches from the floor. I had a hard time getting up pigged loo.
Just give yourself a Little' time to continue to heal. Sounds like your on the right tract for progress.

However the great thing is being able to walk pain free and stand for so much longer.
