I was told I don’t need hip replacement but if I did it would be a much easier surgery!

I think hip replacement is easier but you have to be a certain age for insurance ti pay and mostly they are good for about 15 years and hard to replace more than once. Age is a big factor. My fear is he won't fo one and wants to continue more PT. I've been in PT for 5 months getting worse as I think its tearing more.
Best of luck. I hopefully find out more this week or next.

Thing is I fell and I really wasn't expecting to end up with a hip replacement because of it. It was NOT on my to-do list esp since I need my knee done on that same side. Not looking forward to this but am looking forward to just my normal pain.
