Thigh pain

i am 3 weeks post op, when i get up from a chair and walking i get a ache at the side of my thigh as if the hip is trying to push out side ways, and yet after a little while it will go off i did wonder if it is just a lot of bruising, all i do know is that when i came round i only had one drain in but had two drain holes, when asked the nurse practioner at the drs she said it could be because i had a bit of trumour in that area

 

It could be your back. I get the same at around belt level. But if you are worried about it ring your surgeon'secretary.

I had that feeling alot too.  I am now 3 1/2 months out and that feeling has gone, most of the time.  I will get better.

Good morning marilyn, 

It is possible that the whole hip thing is still settling after being manipulated - 

mine are still tender on both sides - 

it  is so fragile and we just don;t realize it sometimes - 

just take your time - I am still doing almost everything in slooooowwwww motion - 

big warm hug 

sounds like you are doing a lot better
