I had anterior total hip replacement in anticipation of it the year prior I worked out twice a day, so I’d be in good shape to get back to work quick, I am a police officer. The doctor cut one of my nerves which I guess is one of the things that can happen with anterior, don’t know if that had anything to do with all the issues I had, I had continually pain in the groin where I couldn’t Luft my leg without assistance. So he did a revision 8 months later which seemed to go well until I dislocated a month after surgery, then the cold weather hit and I got end of stem pain it was so bad I had to use a walker which I didn’t even use after surgery. I am extremely frustrated because I don’t know what to do to get rid of this extreme pain in my mind thigh that makes it that sometimes I can just not put weight on my leg. Anyone with suggestions would be so appreciated

Hi @drnbastar – Welcome to Connect. I am so sorry about the issues you've had with your hip replacement. I have not had hip surgery – just both knees replaced. So I can offer you morale support but not much in the way of sharing experiences. You have definitely come to the right place – a number of people here have had hip replacements. How long ago was your hip replacement and then your revision? Also, I'm curious whether you are still doing any physical therapy – and if so, what does your physical therapist recommend for the pain?
