I had double hip replacement in 2018, yesterday I tweaked my left hip somehow and now it hurts very bad to put weight on it, I have to test it like 3 times before moving it and the pain is horrible. All day and now starting out again this morning. I have heard they can loosen, should I go to hospital?

It might be a muscle or ligament pink. I'd ice it all day, on and off each 20 minutes, and see if it improves at all tomorrow. If it isn't improving, then I'd go in for an X-ray.
It's hard to dislodge an implant in the hip or knee, but nit impossible. I have a hunch you pulled a muscle or ligament around the knee. Again, take it easy and keep the ice on. Aspirin or ibuprofen or alive might help as well with pain and inflammation. I wouldn't put heat on it.
