Dull femur pain 15 months after hip replacement

@dwyatt74 When you say "I've been lifting weights with my legs the past 12 months...", what kind of weight are you talking about, and what machines?
I wonder if you need to consult a PT highly trained in post-surgical rehab. Perhaps lifting weights too early has impeded the growth of bone into the implant, and you need to back off. 4 months after surgery, the bone and femoral implant were not yet completely grafted together. (I would not rely on trainers at the gym.)

hello
i had a typo in initial post. i had surgery in August of 2023. So it's now been 15 full months. About 6 months ago, i saw the surgeon who did the operation and he said this dull femur pain was not totally uncommon and should fade with time. I saw another hip surgeon who pretty much said the same thing with the addition that whatever i have in terms of this feeling after 2 years - i'm stuck with. i also get the burning sensation in thigh etc when i'm out for an extended walk so maybe all related to nerve issues?? anyone - everyone - please advise as this is really worrisome given i'm only 50. ughhh thank you!
