I had R anterior hip replacement in 2015 and have been dealing with R quad weakness ever since. PT recently found excessive scar tissue at the site and has improved situation with manual protocols. Femoral nerve apparently was stretched during dislocation process. Scar tissue and adhesions made the situation worse.
