So glad you replied. I am only one yr but the dr said I stretches the muscles too much.. not sure if that was the real answer or if he didn’t put in the right size of plastic spacer..
how was your re overt? I am worried to go back into same decision and infection

The revision with just the spacer inserted was somewhat painful but motion came back pretty quick. Surgery is quick since just replacing the spacer. I haven’t had any trouble at all.
