Find an excellent physical therapist
Thinking out loud here. When I had serious pain issues after my 4th hip replacement, I was sent to a rehab PT - a clinic that specializes in getting people back in shape after serious accidents, or typical PT fails. My posture, gait, strength and balance were assessed, and I was given very specific exercises, on land and in water, to do to get me walking correctly after many years of bad, hips, knee and back pain.
It took a lot of work, but after 10 years I can tell when I'm getting lazy and start the exercises again or replace my shoes.
I'll definitely be going back there after my inevitable knee replacements.
