Cannot lift my leg after hip replacement

I had R hip replacement seven years ago and while the pain is gone and easy recovery I still can't lift my leg as high as my left one. It doesn't hurt but it feels so heavy like there is a weight on it.

I have that problem too. I found out that my Psoas muscle was damaged when my hip replacement was done. I am still upset as I waited 2 years not knowing that was done. Too late to go after doctor!
