stabbing pain in thigh after hip replacement

Inner thigh pain: Causes, symptoms, and treatmentTop Health Categories× Top Health Categories Hip Replacement Problems As with all major surgeries, a hip replacement procedure is associated with several complications and risks, some of which may even be life threatening. The risk of complications is low, but some examples of potential problems include: Dislocation of the hip joint The hip joint moves from its intake in about 3% of cases. After a hip replacement procedure, it may take up to twelve weeks for soft tissues around the joint to heal after they have been cut during surgery. During this period, the joint is badly supported and the femoral head can work its path free from the take, which leads to dislocation. The risk of hip dislocation is reduced when less tissue is cut, if the cut tissue is repaired, or if the prosthesis of the femoral head has a large diameter. When heads are used with a smaller diameter, lower dislocation rates are also observed with the previous and non- posterior approach of surgery, but this has not yet been shown for procedures involving heads with a larger diameter. Patients may decrease their risk of dislocation by avoiding certain postures during the first months after surgery. Alcohol consumption in the few months following the surgery is associated with a higher risk of dislocation. Displacement of the joint This is the most common complication of the hip replacement and occurs when the axis of the prosthesis is lost in the taking of the thigh bone or the bone surrounding the implant begins to thin. This can lead to pain and a feeling that the joint is unstable. If the joint is loosened, it usually occurs from 15 to 20 years after surgery, at which time a review surgery may be required. Using and tearingThe artificial hip joint is another common complication of this procedure. The use of the prosthesis may cause the joint to loosen, requiring additional surgery if the problem is severe. Metal-en-metallic prostheses are believed to be subjected to wear before the expected and the annual check of these implants is recommended. Joint fixation The soft tissues surrounding an implant can become rigid and lead to reduced mobility, although this does not usually cause pain. The problem can be prevented using radiotherapeutics or medications. Metal Sensitivity Some people may be sensitive or allergic to metal in implants, causing local inflammation to develop or delay healing, for example. Surgery may also fail completely. Serious symptoms Some rarer but severe types of complications that may occur after a hip replacement procedure include: Blood clot formation During the first few weeks after surgery, there is a small risk of developing thrombosis. The two main places that can form a blood clot include the leg (), or the lung, in which case the clot is called pulmonary embolism. Where suspected or suspected, immediate medical care must be sought. The risk of blood clot formation can be reduced by anticoagulant therapies such as warfarin. InfectionInfectionPatients of Hip replacement have a small risk of bacterial infection that occurs in artificial hip joint. Patients should urgently seek medical care if they have symptoms such as fever, chills, persistent hip pain, or swelling/download on the surgery site.

After which she developed a very small tremor, barely noticeable, but now it is at the point after 20 some yrs. to be very debilitating. She can't write or even feed. It has treated with rebuilt and continuous infections of the bacterial type for many years " does not seem to get rid of them completely. He is currently in a nursing home " requires 24/7 care. He has had eight children " a hard life " , we believe that he may have some kind of reaction to metallosis to his first hip implant, as he has always been allergic to cheap jewels. She's 80 now " we only see her slip more every day " doctors say she's too old to have any surgery for anything. So what to do, when you think the removal of the old hip replacement could significantly improve your life? I am requesting a metal test for high cobalt levels " chromium in the blood to see what it shows as I have just read this article in it here. Thank you! Wish us luck! Linda M.

Knee replacement, or knee arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure to replace surfaces that bear the weight of the joint of the knee to relieve the pain and disability of osteoarthritis. It can be done for knee diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis. In patients with severe deformity of advanced rheumatoid arthritis, trauma or long-term osteoarthritis, surgery may be more complicated and may lead to greater risk. I replaced my hips. 12 months ago and the other six months. Twelve months of hip is 85% agree. The other hip on the knee has become stiff. You can't find information for people who have had BOTH hips replaced.. Thanks, Geoff Hughes. I replaced both hips; the right in 2012, and the left one year later. The surgeries were fine, I had a super easy recovery and I went back to work in 6 weeks after each. I sincerely believe that my positive attitude about the need to do so, as well as a fantastic surgeon were the keys to my success. Two days ago, the right hip slipped away, which put me in unbearable pain until he accidentally returned to his place by himself. I'm taking care of the last two days, and I'm planning on seeing the surgeon praying soon to see if something can be wrong. X-rays didn't show any damage, but I'm being proactive. ER doc Friday said Zumba may be out for a while, but not to cancel my gym membership yet! I'm in the early '60s, and this isn't gonna slow me down or stop teaching part-time. Look what's going on and stay there! I'm having very strange symptoms. Eleven months after having a hip replacement, I am having a weak (circular) redness in the incision with bruises that have followed the incision line starting at the bottom of the incision to the foot and moving the incision line to the top. This is very disconcerting. Has anyone else there ever had this situation? It was curious... does anyone feel like when the bone in your leg meets the metal in your new hip feels like it's gonna break? Does anyone else have extreme amounts of pain after their full hip replacement and many problems? I want to know if this is normal? Although sometimes I wonder how well patients feel pain for all painkillers. Medical professionals keep laughing at me for not taking the heavy ones, but I don't know how you can know if you're suffering otherwise. Even if this pain is from your thigh muscle cramp (it could be, especially if it comes and goes out), I would check it out with a doctor or a PT. Yes, he had replaced 10 months ago and had nothing but pain and trouble sitting for any time. Horrible. Nobody at NHS wants to know. I had done mine a couple of years ago and I have a lot of pain and sitting long is hard for me too. Moving a lot is hard too. Yes! I'm having that problem now. Just a little more than a year of my second surgery where I had a new take on and, my thigh is appearing like a knuckle and wobbly and unstable but the doctor can't seem to find anything wrong with my X-rays. He's kept me from going back to work and doing a lot of things. I had hip replacement last May 2015 after I went home after 2 weeks, my hip came out of the joint. This kept jumping every 2-3 weeks my doctor said I have loose joints. I've never heard of this. He finally went and put a collar on his hip. He's not out of the joints anymore, but it's a lot of noise. Have you heard of this or are you trying to cover up something that did wrong. I am having the same problem missing 5 sense of time October 2016 How is your hip doing now and what did they do again?November 2017. I'm praying is a simple thing and I'm going back to my feet in a short time. Good luck to all those who are having trouble with their hip replacement. In July 2013 he had left the hip replacement. For the last 2-3 weeks I am experiencing pain very similar to what I had before the hip was replaced. The hip is especially painful again at night. I have no difficulty walking or standing down. "Sometimes" I feel the hip is going to give climbing stairs. I had no complications after surgery. My right hip was replaced last September 2015 with no complications immediately after surgery or until this day I have a year of appointment review with my surgeon in a couple of weeks. I definitely plan on discussing left hip pain with him on that date. In the meantime, what could be causing the pain? Yeah, me too. Hip operation at the same time as you Robin. No complications, but from the first day, it never felt good. I think the "incorrect" mattress in the hospital doesn't help, but there's not enough of the right ones to turn around. Also, those who shout louder receive them! You can't comfortably sit for more than 15 minutes and travel in a car is atrocious. I can walk, but when I get up I have to hold the front of my hip and the groin to get up. Not happy a little. Surgeon? Good man, shame for attitude - "I don't make mistakes" - did I really?...... I fell in 2012 and broke my right hip. I went to the emergency room, had to be there for 13 hours before a surgeon finally got here. He did the surgery, not a full hip replacement. That only lasted a couple of months before it untied. I came back for a total replacement of my hip, and I've had pain since then, I've also let down my balance a lot. I can walk for a half hour, then the pain begins. I've always slept on my right side, but when I do this, I wake up with extreme pain. I went to see other doctors, but they say it's okay! No one wants to clean someone else's mess up, it seems. The pain goes down to my foot. I also have osteoporosis. My scar is 13 inches long, and the muscle never turned, as the doctor said. Is there any hope for me? I want my life back. Yours sounds a lot like mine. And the doctor doesn't want to take responsibility for it, even though my other doctor feels it's the problem. I don't feel like I have a lot of life, limited to what I do and I don't sleep much. And I totally agree that I want my life back. I had my left hip replaced 2 years ago and my right hand this January. Since the second fact I'm not sure I'm walking so I feel unbalanced but my consultant says I'm fine as hips are the same. Today when I was out suddenly I felt the right hip clicking while walking and although I have no pain I feel something wrong. Sounds like a nut when I fall. Has anyone had this and could be a warning to the hip's breakup? Any information would be welcome as I can find nothing online about it. I wonder how often this happens.i had my left hip replaced for the third time three years ago that left my knee numb to the bottom.i was told that I would improve but it is not. So I have to walk with a walker. I was wondering if anyone else has this problem... had both hips replaced in 2014. I still have trouble standing and sitting. While I'm sitting, I feel like I'm sitting on the golf ball. Did anyone else have or had this problem? Hi had been replaced and had never been well. I feel like I'm sitting on something and when I get up, I usually have to stand still and get juices flowing before I can take a step. Sometimes they have to cling to things and after a few steps it gets a little better. Doc still can't understand what's wrong and now he's talking about review surgery.... I had a total hip replacement and I've had a lot of pain that started about a year ago and they haven't been lucky to get the doctor even to look at it. Get a very sharp pain in the pelvis when I sneeze the cough or just move fast. Scaling stairs or hills also causes a lot of pain, and having numbness in the lower leg. Does anyone else have those problems? I still have pain after walking 20 minutes and numbness in my thigh is still very present. I see that I'm not the only one who goes through this and somehow I feel better repentant! But this has been worrying me for some time and not trying to be a baby or that's how the surgeon makes me feel. I'm sorry you went through this, but in short, you're not alone. A bone density analysis is the following procedure you want to run now to reduce why I have so many problems I had a full hip replacement on my right side in May 2014. Since August 2014 I have had pain or spasms in my right thigh. I've spoken to my hip Surgeon and there's no luck there and I've even been with a spine surgeon to see if this could be related to bad records on my back. He did tests and nothing came up. This pain doesn't show up all the time, but when it does, it stops me dead on my prints. Does anyone else experience this type of thigh pain? I've had some of the same problems with pain spasms in my right thigh, leg and foot numbing and pain in my whole right leg, and the whim-up right leg that appears and is unstable so I have to walk with a rod or walker some tides, but some how the doctor says nothing bad shows in my exrayos I have a titanium hip replacement done in May 2017 I am irritating in my stomach and throat area. My emissions are affected. I experience a different smell. I understand what I call the titanium aroma emitting from my body. Does anyone know what the best treatment is? Please. My 92-year-old mother had hip surgery and after 3 days in the hospital she went to a rehabilitation center where they continued to take her out of bed and seated her, and tried to get her up. Is that correct? They also did not cover the procedure where they hit her again. Within a week she was back in the hospital with severe infection and other surgery. His incision wasn't covered all the time he was in rehab. Should I have been covered with bandages and medications to prevent infection? What did they do to you when they closed the incision and sent you to pack the hospital? I had my right hip replaced last May 2017, I've been walking since the replacement day. I went through what the doctor called three weeks of hell. Everyone remembers it. They passed the front of my leg. I've healed quite well without smelling or anything. The hip has never stopped hurting. My surgeon quit two weeks after my surgery so I had to check with another doctor in the same office. I tried to tell him I couldn't sleep and that my hip was still killing me. I just stopped taking the prescribed pain pills. I just wanted to let you know what was going on and what I can do to try to sleep at night. I lived in a rural area that was a 100-mile trip. My surgeon told me that where I lived it would be difficult to do physical therapy to make my wife become my therapist. We had everything we needed from the therapist to exercise and fulfill religiously. Anyway he went to see this other doctor and went to us and told us he didn't want to hear from us and that's why my doctor was no longer here. Then he got into my wife's face and told him he wasn't going to release his license because of pain pills we weren't even asking. That was last June that we moved to the Oregon coast. I walked a lot on the beach until my hip seemed to get worse by clicking on the hip my groin pain getting worse and my femur hurts like walking in a broken leg all of which never left. I have a new primary care doctor here and I have to go every three months to get my A1C checked because I'm also a diabetic type 2. Needless to say, I haven't worked since March 14, 2017 because of this hip. I've been telling my new doctor what's going on. He decided to make a white blood cell count in my new labs. The labs came back and I have a high white blood cell count. She says it's because of my pain in my new hip and high white blood cells that I now have an infection in my new hip. I wonder if this has been there since the replacement. Now I'm not on the beach. It hurts a lot. You can't sit down for a long time and not be able to walk or stand for too long my English is still killing me and adding to all this I have bad headaches in my stomach and chills. Now I have to go to corvalis Oregon now to get fluid out of this new hip (more pain) while I'm not in anything for pain or even squeeze it hard. Waiting to see these people and keeping them updated. I have an abscessed tooth that is still hurting despite a prolonged antibiotic treatment with a muxician... about 2 weeks. I'm waiting for the insurance company to tell me if a dental implant will have insurance coverage and if the extraction would be covered at least. I went to amoxicillin as soon as the tooth started to hurt. It took me a few days before my dentist could see me. It's not getting much better. I still have toothache in my tooth. My dentists think the tooth could be torn apart. Now I have developed a stabbing pain in the area of my left front leg where the English and leg/hyp meet. It's an artificial joint. I did it four years ago and I've never had a problem with him. It's a stabbing pain right where the pulse is found in that area. He comes and goes without any rhyme or reason. I'm afraid the infection may have spread to my artificial hip joint. But the pain is definitely in the groin area. Any ideas? He had a total left hip replacement five months ago. Dislocated 2 times within the first 2 weeks, He has had severe pain in the lower neck, shoulder with curve on the opposite side. But the pain radiates downwards towards the center of the buttocks towards the groin area in the center of the thigh and then toward the outer side of the left hip where the surgery was performed. I am Limping now " pain is horrible sitting, standing, or walking. The hip has been X-ray showing healing is fine but this pain persists. I also fell once during this time. I have had cyatic problems in the past " had nerve endings (burned) that helped for a year or so the procedure was repeated twice more over several years. I have degenerative disk disease with both replaced knees. Do I need a cat analysis done or go back to pain management to see what he thinks is wrong? I've hurt for months without relief. I have tried the heat, the cold, all kinds of ointments " pain persists. Please help as Hospiceishelping mew/mi sick terminal husband who has cancer. I have to find out what's wrong! I've had my hip replacement bi for 11 years. Last year he was still working hard on the farm upstairs and down banks with ease. This year everything is different The pain is at the bottom of the leg implants, it's making my balance bad, as I'm not sure if my leg will stand me if I'm out of balance. I'm not sure what to do, I was hoping to get at least 20 years of the operation I'm now 70 and I still have lots of work to do.
