Dull femur pain 15 months after hip replacement

Ouch! When was your surgery? Do you know if the nerve was damaged or completely severed?
Damaged nerves can repair themselves, but it is a long, slow process - think many months to a couple of years, not weeks or months.
Wht does the surgeon say, and have they referred you to a specialist for an evaluation?

The surgeon said it could get better in 2 years or never. He said it happens to about 15% of patients with anterior hip replacement. I’d love to chat with anyone in this 15%.
