Is it normal to have hip pain 9 months after a total hip replacement?
I had my hip replaced September 2019. It was due to AVN that I developed in both hips and both knees during chemo back in 2009. I had a bone graft done on the right hip but the latest x ray before the replacement showed signs of collapse again. My doctor went in through the side to do the replacement and I completed physical therapy and was recovering very well. The past month or two I've had an increase in pain doing light activity. Getting in and out of cars will trigger sharp pain or a tweak as I call it, even when I use the technique taught after surgery. Several times a day I'll somehow step wrong and also cause pain. And then during my walks that range anywhere from 15-60 minutes my partner will notice me starting to limp about 10 minutes in and pain will set in around the 20-30 minute mark. Is this normal? I havent been able to keep up on physical therapy due to a separate condition that makes physical exertion difficult (IST if any of you know what that is).
