Hi, I had both hips replaced, first 2010 posterior and no issues after 1 year recovery time. The second hip, anterior incision 13 months ago. I thought the continued pain was my hip but was informed by a neurosurgeon its not from my hip but L5 and sacrum area.

What caused you to seek a neurosurgeon? I am starting out with a fused L5 to pelvis on both sides since I was young. At 66 I wonder if my pain is not specifically hip related. I seek total body perspective doctor not surgeon focused.
