Has anyone had sharp thigh pain after hip replacement

I have the same issue. I had revision surgery on both hips this last year and I get the same sharp thigh pains. I walk a lot at work and yesterday the pain in my thighs made me limp and wax painful. I do stretch before I shower in the morning before work. The pain is sharp. But not all the time

I had 2 hip replacements and 3 years on continued to do daily stretches and exercise which eliminated thigh pain. 2nd hip replacement was a breeze. Now, however, dealing with staph infection in 1st hip which was done 3 years ago!?. Currently mid-way through 6 week antibiotic IV treatment and hip spacer. Hip spacer has been excruciating I must say. I think I saw that someone had posted that it was and instrument of torture!.I hope that I am able to get new hip end of November and recover back to normal activity once again!

I hear you! I had the same issue, but couldn't manage my staff from my desk after surgery, so I was up an moving most of the day - or tramping through the airport hauling my luggage.
Finally a smart PT told me to use my breaks to stretch again during the day. And to elevate my feet at lunch time, even if for just 5-10 minutes.
Is it possible for you to do this?
