Left hip pain and groin 3 years after posterior total hip replacement

Who did you go to see for your doctor that helped you & where is he/ you located? Doctor’s name/group & location. I’m 3 years post op. I was doing great & had a complete foot/ankle reconstruction 2 years ago this November 5, 2021. All went well, but I took a horrific fall & my left hip & foot have never been the same. My left hip is now slowly bulging more & more. Extremely painful. I need to desperately lose wo, but the hip & foot pain make it almost unbearable. Being older does not help. I need to go back yo my orthopedic doctor, but what I have read about revisions ~ I am quite concerned.
Thank you for sharing your experiences & to everyone else, too!

Well now its bursitis (ortho says) my pain dr says it’s a nerve, so he did some injections & the groin pain went away immediately & the pain stayed away for 31 hrs, now he’s completed another injection but not in the same spot even though I told him during the procedure that’s not the place you hit last time, so I had excruciating groin & hip pain for 11 straight days. Now he’s completed another round of injections into the Si joint & it’s only helped my back but not the dang groin pain, next is another injection into the bursa, so now I wait for the next set. But I do have this to add: my granddaughter & I have been exercising at home (she’s 11 & very hyper) so I was showing her some floor Jazzercise mice’s I used to teach & the my hip is extremely stiff, that night the hip & groin pain was thru the roof, the next am I get up with no & I mean no hip or groin pain, so this makes me think it is the tendons & ligaments causing the pain, I’ve been exercising 2x a day when I can handle the pain!
