My wife had a small fracture in her right hip. She had extreme pain and groin pain.
The surgeon did a hip REPAIR because he was concerned it would get worse and then a hip replacement would be necessary. She had the REPAIR and still has the pain and difficulty putting her right leg down to walk up steps.
It has been 5 months since the surgery and she still has pain with some improvement.
Her biggest problem is sitting for approx 20 to 30 minutes and then because of the pain, she gets up with additional pain getting up from the chair. She will walk a short distance and then sit again and then repeat. She is most comfortable standing and walking. Has anyone had a similar experience? How long does the discomfort last. She is allergic to aspirin and all NSAIDS including celebrex . All she takes is tylenol. Any comments.
