John, thanks for your prompt response. Yes she has been checking with her physician.
He explained that the pain will take time and should greatly improve or disappear within 8 to 12 months. We are also have an appointment with a hip specialist in NY at NY Presbyterian Hospital.

Does icing help reduce the hip pain? I'm not sure what all is done with a hip revision but when I had my knee replaced icing worked really well at keeping the pain level down. I thought it wasn't working and then my surgeon told me that I was not icing it like he directed. I thought he meant just as needed (every once in awhile in my book) but he said that when I wasn't moving around I should be icing it.
