I have develop a pain and like a charlie horse feel in my thigh. I had worked up to 10,000 steps a day and bam im now using my walker again. But t5he strange thing is this doesn't happen 24/7 it comes and goes

5 months post op and I still have thigh pain off and on. Still able to use treadmill doing 15 minutes at a time no more than 2 mph. I take acetaminophen and use a salonpas lidocaine large patch when it is particularly troublesome. Most days I can get away with just the acetaminophen. I am 75 years old.
Yep samething for me comes and goes but mine feels more like the bone is hurting

This sounds like angry, healing nerves to me. Also, you have limped for a long time. Maybe you need some PT to check your gait and give you some specific exercises?
