My fiancée had hip replacement surgery in 2015 with a titanium hip and has been having severe pain ever since, he went back to physician and was told there was nothing wrong. He couldn't even do his physical therapy because it just made the pain WORSE. It absolutely breaks my heart to see him like this EVERY DAY and he's only in his 40s. SOMEONE PLEASE GIVE ME SOME ADVICE

Please find a sport medicine orthopedic doctor in a different practice to do a full evaluation. This should include an x-ray, physical examination, evaluation of his ability to move, and possibly an MRI or CT scan because not all possible problems show on an x-ray.

Is the pain new, or more severe now, or has it always been like this?
