5 weeks post op and still on a walker with pain getting progressively worse with range of motion, walking, weight bearing, and sitting. No sign of infection and motion has improved a lot but significant pain deep in joint, with sharp stabbing pain in buttocks and groin with walking and weight bearing

Have you told this to your doctor?

Dear lyle

You need to get in contact with your surgeon without delay because something is badly wrong.

Good luck,

Richard

I echo others that this should be reported to your surgeon. If X-ray shows no problem with the implants and bones, you may have soft tissue injuries. How much walking are you doing? Too much can hinder healing at this early stage of recovery. I ended up with two gluteal tendon tears immediately post-op from my THR. We don't know why they tore, but they did, and a year and a half later I ended up having surgery to repair them.
