<p><strong> </strong>Femur stiffness after a fracture</p><p>I fell on a hip replacement and fractured my femur in 2019. I recovered ok but my leg is now very stiff. Hard to get up and down off the floor. I am wondering if I can ever regain my former strength and mobility?</p>

@sandy148 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect, a place to give and get support.

You fell after a hip replacement and fractured your femur. You are concerned because you have not regained your full strength and mobility and you are looking for information and member support.

You will notice that I moved your question. I did this because members like @belavita67 @khalt @sueinmn @jtgr @popolopo @suzanne2 @klarnold @lbosrig are discussing pain after a total hip replacement. These members may be able to give you the information and support needed.

May I ask how long after you fractured your femur, were you able to resume physical therapy?
