Went to orthopaedic Dr. last week. His opinion is that when I had total hip replacement he lengthend the leg to keep hip in place. When he did this, he stretched all the muscles and tendons in the thigh. Therefore they say nothing can be done and I am left in severe pain and can not walk except on a walker. Anyone have any ideas on anything that can be done. Thank you.

I had double hip replacement as well in 2018. one good other not as good. I go to step and get a sharp pain in my thigh area about drops you it is that bad. Well its been 4 yrs now, has gotten better pain is less until yesterday I was coming up my steps and (icy steps) and a tiny little movement tweaked that left hip. I have been in terrible pain since yesterday, cant put weight on leg, I have to do like three tests before it stops and lets me put weight on it. I cannot function like this, going to hospital to see what I can find out. Oh, for others try a product called Blu Emu, apply from hip to toes this has been a God send for me with my hip pain, it may not cover everyones, but if it is nerve pain which alot of mine has been this product works wonderfully for that. It is sold at Wal-mart and most drug stores. I am going t try it today for new issue and see what happens, I will keep you all posted.
