Dear all
I am so glad to read all your post THR experiences especially- the pain in buttock experiences...
I had a Left THR under spinal aneasthesia - when the feeling returned to my legs I experienced the most excruciating burning pain in my left buttock- initially I thought it was normal post THR - however it has now been 22 months and I still have the pain - my GP eventualy agreed to an MRI after months - my hip replacement is suposed to be normal - the pain consultant also suggested it could be nnerve root compression between L4/5 and L5/S1. So I have had 2 differnt types of spinal injections with now reduction of my pain - Sadly my foreighn pain consultant is very unsympathetic - has now decided he will manage my pain with telephonic advice via a Pain CNS.
I am slowly going mad as I do not feel anybody believes me. I find it very difficult doing my job as a Macmillan Clinical Nurse Specialist as I am in severe pain every day of my life.
It is so reasuring to know i am not mad...
Will post if i find anybody that help

Find a surgeon who does the anterior or lateral approach. It’s much better than the posterior.

I'm 2.5 years post surgery on my right Hip. I've been doing quite well and getting back to a normal lifestyle.
I've been walking without a limp, the range has been good, sleeping good, no movement restrictions and been able to train ok. I've stayed clear of long runs or soccer.
In the last week as we approach winter I've been feeling a dull pain in my right buttock (operated hip) mainly when I sit down for a long period of time or when I'm driving for more than 30 mins. This seems worse when I'm at work and sitting through multiple meetings.

Does anyone have a similar experience? Is this related to the hip operation or failed Hip resurfacing? or does it sound more muscular related?
Can someone please advise?
Thanks

I understand what you experience. Both hips replaced, burning began shortly after 2nd replaced March 2018. Neither replacement fixed my original complaint back spasms/cramps while walking. My burning is around my Coccyx and right groin area. Pain Level worse after activity....68 years old. Yes I have had back surgery Nov 2017, first surgery ....I wish I never started seeking medical help... Worse mistake in my life. Had my 4th caudal epidural March 28, 2019. Total relief for about 3 hours, but burning pain is coming back. I'm soooo tired,. I have a great pain management team responsible for my life.

I had my first of four hip surgeries in October of 2015! Butt pain, among other pain finally lead us to a ‘loose’ acetabular implant. In short, the cup never fused with my bone, resulting in loose prosthetic and lots of pain. A revision surgery was required to repair it.

Did Tanya ever figure it out? I'm in the same boat.

Sounds like your groin is out of alignment. Go see a chiropractor they can adjust that. I have that right now and my chiropractor is helping me.

I broke my left hip at the job on the November 10th, 2018. 3 operations later, I'm still having periods of unbearable pain in the lower back/buttock area. I'm still unable to work completely and doing only half the shift every other day.

Currently, I'm on Tylenol and meloxicam and, besides occasional drowsiness and some mild headaches from time to time I don't feel overwhelmed with drugs. But I'm scared that I will have trouble quitting them if this pain continues.

Can someone tell me how much until pain is gone and I'm fully healed? Or some tips to ease this situation?

Hi Tanya:

I had the same thing happen with my acl replacement. Everything looked perfect mri and xray BUT it took me going to Thailand and a regular hospital to figure it out.
1. It may have been too tight….that is what happened to me. It doesn’t show but luckily I had a smart Dr. who didn’t look by the usa playbook.
2. Your rehab sucked and didn’t get rid of all your scar tissue. Usa has horrible expensive rehab. I had the money to go to the best and is was 1,000% worse that a $25 dollar thai physical therapist.
A) unlike here the dr not an assistant work on you for 1 hr and I mean work….not pleasant but I got 99.9 mobility after 4 month and started doing Muay Thai
B) your food is important don’t c**p and drink tons of water to flush out your system
C) visualize the area before sleep, know the area from pics and actually tell your body to work on it ….sounds stupid but your body listens to your brain
D) lymphatic massage followed by arnica and tiger balm
E) gentle spine extension rotation and stretches find one of the few chiropractors that has a table the moves your back

Hello, I'm new to this so please bear with me. I had my left hip replaced in 2010 at 50 & my right hip replaced at 55. The leg one is fine even though the surgeon said he used tiny parts fit for a child. The right one is the problem. I continued to have groin pain after surgery & was as diagnosed by the surgeon as having iliopsoas impingement. He referred me to a pain specialist. I see my primary care physician for the pain due to personal reasons & she said this surgeon has a lot of successful surgeries but also has a lot of failures. This must be common but of course most professionals aren't going to say it out loud. I hope this helps you to understand surgeons are "practicing". I deal with pain every day & my Dr. said she will prescribe pain meds as long as I need it. My previous Dr. said the same thing. When I was born, my hips were completely out of the sockets & I was in traction, had pinning operations, & braces. Unfortunately, some of us who were born with dysplasia will always have problems. I've learned to live with it. I found solace in reading crime novels, tv programs, & gardening with raised beds. My yoga instructor used used to say, "Do what you can, & leave the rest behind."
