Very, very scared to have knee surgery and hip surgery

So, what actually causes the pain in hips and joints?
In particular, I have a 'bad' knee and hip, giving me much pain, especially for the hip. The knee is bad enough, but doesn't give me sharp pain like the hip does. So I wonder -- what actually gives me the pain? The pain is usually in the front part of my thigh, a little lower than the hip joint. Yeah -- next doctor I see I will ask why. But I though maybe some of you dear ones can offer some possibilities as to WHY...

My pain started in my groin area - specifically the crease in my leg between my abdomen and thigh. Sometimes it would feel like a small "pop" in that area too. I was also very stiff after sitting. I would get up and "hobble around" for a few minutes until everything loosened up. I eneded up having a total hip replacement which resolved that pain. Your knee could also be part of the problem. Knee or hip pain and can refer to other parts of the body.

When I am sitting I have no big pain. Especially on my recliner. But when I stand up, that's when the hip pain is bad....Why do you think that is?
