Pain after a revision hip replacement?

i had a revision hip replacement in january was doing fine and then about six weks ago started to get pain on side of my leg just below ending of scar . thought it might be muscle pain but its getting worse would physio help . my xrays came back normal acouple of weeks before pain started i am worried sick that it might be loosening again. as anyone had simillar experiences

If I were you, I'd make another appointment with the surgeon and have it checked out. It may be nothing serious. Wouldn't you feel better knowing that for sure? In addition, if another x-ray or physical therapy or pain meds are indicated, you could get the Rx for those at the same doctor appointment.

I have not had that kind of problem, but It can be a serious problem. Make sure you get it checked again and also, see if you can get some painkillers for the pain, if the pain is that bad. Yes, move your leg around alot, even if it hurts, if you move it, blood will circulate better and it may be reduce pain.
