Hello....if you type in "Walking without a hip joint" you will find a lengthy forum on this Mayo Website with some helpful info and support for you. I have been walking without a hip joint for 2.5 years now. Cindy

Allergy to the metal maybe…try ceramic! I had two left total knee replacements then discovered I was allergic to the metal and they replaced them with ceramic, I don’t have any more problems.
