Hello,
Yes this is very normal. I had both my hips done in December 2020, 3 weeks apart. I had the numbness for around a year and a half. The pain got better within 6 months. Now I don't even think about the hips. It was the best decision I ever made. I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my hips at 47 years old and did the injections until I was 51. That's when I got the surgeries. The hips started feeling great and then the knees went bad and now I'm recovering from double total knee replacements. I'm only 6 and 4 months out of those. It takes time after these surgery for all your nerves to heal so just be patient. I hope this helps.

Hello @avs, I moved your discussion and combined it with an existing hip replacement discussion titled: "Total hip replacement - What to expect for recovery?" https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/total-hip-replacement.

I did this so you can meet members like @roxxxy2626, @nancymulloy, @faykatsfour and others talking about their hip replacement recovery.

@avs , i experienced numbness in my hip for about 6 months after my surgery. You are not quite 2 months post op. Are you going to P.T.?
