    Hi It's been a while since I was on here and I'm now just over 9 months post op. I still have a small localised pain but it has got worse. A couple of weeks ago I rang the post op hip department and they didn't seem unduly worried. However, this evening the pain has cranked up a bit and is now...

    I am now 4 months post op and mostly been doing well. Today was my first day back at work, 7.5 hours on my feet with half an hour lunch break. Consequently, I am now very tired, but what worries me more is that I've now got a fair amount of pain at the incision site with one localised spot...

    Hi I've been loitering recently, reading posts, etc. I'm just coming up to 3 months post op (12 weeks + 4 days), and am experiencing some odd pains. I have a dull ache that seems to be around the right sacro iliac joint, radiating round my groin and into my right outer ankle. It niggles when...

    @Layla , thank you! Still getting used to it at the moment. Odd pains and niggles, but managing. Mostly no crutches now although stairs are still a bit of a challenge. Dee

    Hi everyone I'm now just past 8 weeks post op and mostly doing ok. I just want to ask because I haven't had much pain for a while, is it normal to feel a bit of pain at this stage? Feels sore on actual hip and a niggle from knee to ankle on outside of leg and couldn't get comfy for very...

    Thanks to all who replied. I have two phone consultations on 21st July - one for fracture clinic, the other for physiotherapy - so I'll discuss with them and go from there. I am still very anxious about it. On a different note, how soon can I start to use E45 cream on my scar? Many...

    @Jaycey, my employer put me on ssp after my op, which is a pittance really. Doctor has mentioned phased return to work but at the moment I'm nowhere near ready for even an hour on my feet. It's making me very anxious. There's also the added worry that as it's summer, we get alot of...

    Me again! I have another question: how soon do people return to work? I work in a fabric and haberdashery shop, 4 days a week + every 3rd Saturday (although was furloughed from 23rd March, then statutory sick pay since my op). The job involves being on my feet for a total of 7 and a half...

    First of all I want to say a huge heartfelt thank you to everyone who has sent me a lovely message and great advice. It is so very much appreciated. Today I went to the hospital for scans to determine if I had a dvt. My legs were duly measured, I saw the doctor who took lots of family and...

    Up until Friday I've had a good appetite, but since then I'm struggling to eat and when I do I feel sick. Has anybody else felt like this? I'm eating very little. I feel OK otherwise, although I am very nervous about the scan for dvt that I'm to have on Wednesday. I should say that up til...
